Losing Game

Another day in silent wait Biding time as if with certainty I'd find answers in time The moments keep passing by I fail to prove myself So many memories lost So many broken promises A lingering sadness that echoes the hollow lines (echoes the hollow lines) Declining arrest until I'm crushed by the weight of the world Alone, I watch in despair Abundance of life goes to waste (Abundance of life goes to waste) Despite resolutions of youth I pray, a losing game A sudden flare, a dreaded death A breath of air, a long forgotten morning light It all aligns, but then again The moment just passed me by I failed to prove myself So many memories lost So many broken promises A lingering sadness that echoes the hollow lines (echoes the hollow lines) Nowhere to run anymore, nowhere to hide from myself Alone, I watch in despair Abundance of life goes to waste (Abundance of life goes to waste) Despite resolutions of youth I dwell, that burning pain How come the darkness defies who I am? It lingers inside me How come I lost all that I once began? It's all a losing game Why questions burn like silent flames of pain New promises of nothing more The lingering sadness that echoes the hollow lies This sadness await, 'til death do us part Alone, I watch in despair Abundance of life goes to waste (Abundance of life goes to waste) Despite resolutions of youth I dwell, that burning pain How come that darkness defines who I am? It lingers inside me How come I lost all that I once began? It's all a losing game
