Nothing Stays - WVNDER

When I’m all alone

The darkest place in my mind is my only home

And I forfeit my hope

In a world void of substance to tear apart my own soul

Did I cast the stone

That caused an innocent boy to become so old?

And how do I restore

All the meaning I lost at the end of the road?

Close your eyes

You’ll be fine

Where I go

No one knows

So do we decide

Who we are, or defined only by design?

'Cause I don’t feel alive

Unless the dark thoughts stay fleeting

My body is bleeding out

When I was young

Every breath that I’d take was a memory made

Now I can’t fill my lungs

Nothing left to explore, always searching for more

I fear I’ve lost my way

Don’t recognize this face

Nothing can stay the same

All that we love will fade

Nothing stays

If I don’t recover from this

Then where lies my moral compass?

Break my skin to fill the emptiness

Throw myself in the abyss
