Slashed Dreams

[Verse One]
I feel so alone
When the darkness falls on me
As we get left in the dust
Show me the ending that we'll reach
And the truth of what to trust
I still feel the lives that we had lost
Screaming, no more will I think about the cost
No one can save us all
Life is simply lived for naught

[Chorus]
All the faces that I've seen
And places unredeemed
They never stood a chance
Against their fate
Countless wars that I've lived through
And freedom we pursued
They never had a meaning
After all

Do you think about the futile end
There's no point in trying to defend cause
All the faces that I've seen
And places unredeemed
They never stood a chance
And never will

[Verse Two]
Here I stand staring right at
Dread that hangs high over me
Close my eyes make a pact
Give into nihility
Seems like I always knew that
This is all I'd ever see
Now it's my time to act
Drifting minds will be set free
Became one with the end to
Wield this cursed sword
Memories haunt me through
Every waking dream
Why are we born into this world if just to die
That is a mindset I cannot let survive

[Chorus]
All the faces that I've seen
And places unredeemed
They never stood a chance
Against their fate
Countless wars that I've lived through
And freedom we pursued
They never had a meaning
After all

Do you think about the futile end
There's no point in trying to defend but

[Chorus]
Even still we fight
For in our hearts it feels right
To try and make the most of what we've got
Took my time just to believe
That peace can be achieved
Now we can all receive the life we sought
If you think about the futile end

It may feel pointless to defend cause
All the faces that I've seen
And places unredeemed
They never learned the truth
Of life and death
