End of a life
[00:03.11] We'd run right through those nights
[00:09.65] I'll never find my way back to you
[00:11.93] Inside this labyrinth of lights
[00:13.91] There was madness in the meaning
[00:16.71] Never laughless, we were screaming
[00:18.70] At the top of our lungs to the numbness
[00:20.92] This city never died
[00:24.60] I'll fly, no proof
[00:29.09] Those heights
[00:31.07] I'll never find another chance to say
[00:33.03] "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
[00:35.03] I was hopeless, it was stinging
[00:37.51] Running roadless
[00:39.19] We were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
[00:42.31] This city never died
[00:46.54] What was the root of it all? Huh
[00:48.23] I couldn't say
[00:49.07] Used to jump and then fall
[00:50.75] Rugged and clichéd
[00:51.87] Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
[00:54.07] No use in trying to find friends
[00:55.19] 'Cause in the end nobody sticks around
[00:57.15] It's when you shoved yourself into a crowded place
[00:59.41] That you turned around
[01:00.27] And found yourself in love in outer space
[01:01.67] Cue the reckless nights, no strings
[01:03.67] Laughing at our own dreams, haha
[01:05.35] Just what the hell was so funny?
[01:07.35] Bark up the wrong tree, stumble
[01:08.47] Used to falling great heights
[01:09.87] Amidst a concrete jungle
[01:11.27] Singing 'cause it felt right
[01:12.43] We mixed the ennui and troubles
[01:13.83] Rhyming our discontent
[01:15.25] And though it's history
[01:16.13] I can't forget the time that we spent
[01:17.79] Convinced that this could mean another end
[01:19.48] Exists between real and pretend
[01:20.63] A twisted alter-fiction
[01:22.06] Were I missed my chance, did not ascend
[01:23.47] And disappearing into the mist of "Never happened"
[01:26.03] Is the me that I can never befriend
[01:28.28] I let it go
[01:29.72] Fade in, fade out
[01:32.47] This crazy dream
[01:35.03] Without a direction, floating aimlessly
[01:40.42] There's nothing left
[01:43.23] Back there for me
[01:45.83] Breathe in, but it won't stop the rain from pouring
[01:53.75] We'd run right through those nights
[01:56.54] I'll never find my way back to you
[01:58.54] Inside this labyrinth of lights
[02:00.43] There was madness in the meaning
[02:02.95] Never laughless, we were screaming
[02:05.24] At the top of our lungs to the numbness
[02:07.51] This city never died
[02:09.75] But was there ever a soul inside?
[02:11.75] Chasing fireflies between the soaring high-rises
[02:13.47] Left a trail behind
[02:15.15] Defined it, "Wasted time of our lives"
[02:17.15] Silent singer, overworked and underpaid
[02:19.43] Thinks an office is a coffin
[02:20.83] Until off is where you're laid
[02:21.99] Yet a thought persists
[02:22.84] An optimist who ought to be afraid
[02:24.79] Saw the "Nothing wrong" in writing songs
[02:26.21] Behind the lonely shade
[02:27.35] Is the world a sadder place
[02:28.47] Without the words that you conveyed?
[02:29.91] When the ladder fell
[02:30.75] And shattered every bar that we had played?
[02:32.71] Does it matter in the end
[02:33.85] The sound diminished and decayed
[02:35.23] And your friends grew tired of fantasy
[02:36.94] You're wishing they had stayed?
[02:38.07] You don't get to say, "I miss you"
[02:39.50] You watched your heroes fade
[02:40.63] Into the rear-view mirror of the villain you portrayed
[02:43.47] Stop the pity party, listen
[02:44.60] You don't get to be dismayed
[02:46.03] You don't get to be emotional
[02:47.43] Feel blessed you got it made
[02:48.87] These the best of years of life
[02:49.71] Because you chose to make a trade
[02:51.43] Recollect the days you hoped
[02:52.55] And you prayed for this
[02:53.67] What is there to miss?
[02:55.35] Fade in, fade out
[02:57.91] This hazy dream
[03:00.47] Without a direction, roaming aimlessly
[03:05.86] There's nothing left
[03:08.67] Back there for me
[03:11.23] Pretend it's the end of a made-up story
[03:15.15] I'll fly, no proof
[03:17.73] Those heights
[03:21.72] I'll never find another chance to say
[03:23.67] "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
[03:25.63] I was hopeless, it was stinging
[03:28.43] Driving roadless, we were singing
[03:30.71] At the top of our lungs to the numbness
[03:32.95] This city never died
[03:35.19] I'll say goodbye to the soul inside
[03:38.85] And yet somehow, there was romance
[03:39.67] In our self-hate, "We've got no chance"
[03:41.95] In this light maze, but let's hold hands
[03:44.48] Through the night haze, we'll run so fast
[03:46.95] 'Til the school chime, 'til the train runs
[03:48.35] We know it's time, we're the sane ones
[03:52.55] Waking up now, to the "Real life"
[03:55.11] Let me daydream, 'til the next night
[03:57.95] I'll keep waiting
[04:02.47] I'll keep waiting for you
[04:03.91] Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh
[04:29.95] Waking up now, to my real life
[04:32.55] Let me daydream, 'til the next flight
[04:35.07] Drowning so long, I got older
[04:37.63] Now the crowd's gone, is it over?
[04:40.48] Is it over?
