I used to live in happiness,
I used to live in peacefulness,
I used to live...
I used to live...
I don't know what to do nor do I know what to say,
I'm living in this cave and I'm afraid I'll die in this hole,
I'm living someone's dream
But all I feel is hurt, pain, and shame.
I've lost all sense of self and being,
I've tried to look past and see the world,
But I don't think this world is even worth seeing,
I've stopped and made my bed,
And I've thrown the clothes on the floor
It's all just like before.
There are no tomorrows and no yesterdays.
It's all the same
It's all the same
I beg and beg and you see I want you,
But I'm sure now you don't think any of it is true,
I risked it all for you and you want nothing to do with me,
I can't believe how this life can be,
I love you but now it seems I've lost you,
And I've realized it's all the same,
It's all the same,
This life is all the same.
