Had a bad dream on the operating table I tried to scream, but I wasn't able They replaced my veins with cables Now I'll never be the same again I can't recharge your spirit I can see the light, but I can't get near it Echoes of your voice, but I can't quite hear it How did we end up here? I spent a lifetime lost A generation of lettin' go And now the daylight can't break through It's a long way back to you Another two years gone I spent forever lettin' go And I don't wanna face the truth It's a long way back to you Another day, slowly fadin' to sleepless nights Lie awake, empty spaces is a wasted time Push and pull, give and take couldn't make you mine, no And I just wanna recharge your spirit I can see a light, but I can't get near it Echoes of your voice, but I can't quite hear it How did we end up here? I spent a lifetime lost A generation of lettin' go And now the daylight can't break through It's a long way back to you Another two years gone I spent forever lettin' go And I don't wanna face the truth It's a long way back to you If everythin' heals with time Then why is our flame dyin'?
