Lyrics

[00:05.88] What were all those dreams
[00:08.12] we shared those many years ago,
[00:12.75]
[00:13.69] What were all those plans we made,
[00:17.23] now left beside the road.
[00:20.35]
[00:21.61] Behind us in the road.
[00:25.22]
[00:28.15] More than friends, I always pledge,
[00:31.85] cuz friends they come and go,
[00:35.46]
[00:36.27] People change as does everything,
[00:39.83] I wanted to grow old,
[00:43.58]
[00:44.25] I just want to grow old.
[00:46.94]
[00:50.62] Slide on next to me,
[00:54.56] I'm just a human being,
[00:58.74] I will take the blame,
[01:01.73] but just the same,
[01:03.72] this is not me, you see, believe,
[01:10.91] I'm better than this
[01:12.78] don't leave me so cold,
[01:17.02] I'm buried beneath the stones,
[01:21.27] I just want to hold on and know
[01:25.88] I'm worth your love, and I, don't think,
[01:33.31] there's such a thing.
[01:35.12]
[01:39.99] It's my fault now, I've been caught,
[01:43.73] a sickness in my bones.
[01:46.79]
[01:47.91] How do you think it is to leave
[01:50.97] you here with the kids on your own,
[01:54.67]
[01:55.98] Just don't let me go.
[01:58.22]
[02:02.28] Help me see myself,
[02:06.15] Cuz I can no longer tell,
[02:10.27] Looking up from inside of the bottom of a well,
[02:18.13] it's Hell, I yell, but no one hears before,
[02:25.30] I disappear, whisper in my ear.
[02:32.04]
[02:32.73] Give me something to echo in my unknown future,
[02:38.97] you see, my dear, the end, comes near,
[02:45.52]
[02:46.77] I'm here, but not much longer.
