Remember, Layin' in your bed
Listenin to the rain
No words were ever said
There was nothing felt but pain
A cold creeping dread
That this is all your life would be
And then you would be dead
You close your eyes
You try to fight
This empty world of grey
And when you die
Then you can cry
"At least i tried to escape"
Remember, what you thought your life would be
How did it come to this,
Instead of warm and safe and happy?
What part did you miss
That left you drowning in misery?
Now this is what your life is
And when you're finally
Blind enough to see
You can close your eyes
You can try to fight
This empty world of grey
And when you die
Then you can cry
"At least i tried to escape"
Remember, the force that pulled you down
Got you feeling so low
That you didn't look around
A million other souls
With you on the ground
And death has dealt the final blow
And no one makes a sound
And you close your eyes
Giving up the fight
On this empty world of grey
And as you die
With your last breath you lie
"At least i tried to escape"
