as you were
unpeople
Hey
Take
Take what you need from it all
Leave all that you don't
Shame
As much as it pains you to say
Nothing gained or learned
Oh, what a waste of time
Blindsided, undermined
And the last bit of hope just died
Debased
Firmly put into my place
Tripped on unturned stones
Meticulously toil away (ooh)
Only to have it swiftly erased
Oh, this pace (ah)
I wouldn't wish it on the worst
But it happens to the best of us
Oh, what a waste of time
Blindsided, undermined
And the last bit of hope just died
Cut through cloud number nine
Swinging that axe to grind
And the last bit of hope just died
Line 'em up, line 'em up
That gap getting narrow and harrowing
No one wants to go first
Act like there was never a precedent
No, don't go before me
Time passed by so swiftly
No, don't go before me
Time passed by so swiftly (that picture of perfection, a flawless recollection)
(Glowing exactly as you were)
As you were
Hey
Oh, what a waste of time
Blindsided, undermined
And the last bit of hope just died
Cut through cloud number nine
Swinging that axe to grind
And the last bit of hope just died
Never the devil you know
Better to go it alone
