ONWARDS

Today is the first day of my life
I threw the match, set it all alight

We'll sit and watch it burn
I see nothing in your eyes
Are you impressed?
Are you impressed?

Last night was the last night of that life
Where I pretend that I don't care
"I don't have dreams, so I can't fail"
Now I am not afraid to say
"I'm terrified I'll fail"

I set myself on fire
Just to see
If I could get your respect, would you
Would you bow down to me?

I set myself on fire
Now I see
That we need to feed the hand
The hand that feeds

Come sit and watch it burn
Hope with flames comes rebirth
But I won't hold my breath
