In Vain

Spiraling you take another step, taste the bitter taste Hatred as your efforts fail you, and your loved ones turn their backs Tired of endless rivalry, to be what you are not Hear the jesters laugh around you, since the race is long since lost So you waited for things to go your way But you waited for things that never come All those wasted years you lived your life in vain All that is left to do is shoot away the pain Crush your dreams and smash them all, on the concrete floor Face your fear and see the truth, there is nothing there at all One last break of dawn, before the light goes dim Watch the tunnel light go black, gunned down in history So you waited for things to go your way But you waited for things that never come All those wasted years you lived your life in vain All that is left to do is shoot away the pain
