lyrics

Destruction’s Song

I watch my friends waste their life on pills and booze and powder nights
and no one ever say’s a god damn thing
But I know I ain’t no better and I know you’ll find me with em’
when the world comes knocking on the door
Cause the nighttime always has to end and bring back all those things we said
we’d never run away from but we are
And we’re all ashamed to tell ourselves that the life that we’ve been spouting about
hasn’t even come close at all

So we sing, yeah we sing destruction’s song

I’ve watched these years go passing by with an endless string of hazy nights
maybe one or two I can’t recall
When your chasing dreams real life just seems to be a void that always needs
to filled when you’re just standing still
But we’ve all tried our best to get the life that we love the best
that life we really want to make us move
but we’re all our own saboteurs’ side tracked by those things that lure
the weaker parts of our soul’s astray
