Lyrics

Drain (Audiotree Live Version)

[Verse 1]

Look at your world

Isn't it beautiful to drain

How much is it worth

When there's nothing left for you to take

[Chorus]

Oh, what a privilege it is getting old

I hope I live to be so cynical

Why should we dare to live forever

If nobody cares to change for the better?

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah

Yeah

[Verse 2]

Leaving a trace

Building a monolith so large

They can see it from space

A scar that remains after you're dead and gone

[Chorus]

Oh, what a privilege it is getting old

I hope I live to be so cynical

Why should we dare to live forever

If nobody cares to change for the better?

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

[Bridge]

Do we bloom or decay?

Nothing golden ever stays

Do we burn out or fade

When there's nothing left to drain?

[Outro]

Yeah

Oh, what a privilege it is getting old
