lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I dreamt we changed the world together
Fixed all the problems that have ever
Plagued the way we think
I dreamt we changed our lives together
And let our souls embrace each other's
To last until the end
But you know that I'm still stuck in the past
I can't build anything meant to last
There is something here I just can't grasp
And we can't change a thing

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm still
Stuck in this nightmare with you
There's not a thing we can do
To change the way it ends
Stuck in this riddle with truth
The flames are clouding my view
To see the way we bend
Burning to the end

[Verse 2]
It's time we change the world together
Unlink these problems that are tethered
By undercover greed
It's time we changed our lives together
To build a home where we're all better
Without the toxic needs
But you know that it affects us all
No problem too big and none too small
We are watching as our cities fall
And we can't change a thing

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm still
Stuck in this nightmare with you
There's not a thing we can do
To change the way it ends
Stuck in this riddle with truth
The flames are clouding my view
To see the way we bend
Burning to the end

[Bridge]
The weight of the world breathes down my skin
While the wetlands dry and the blood runs thin
So the pain in the hope of tryna leave my mark
Sets in as we spin 'cause there's just no spark
A jury of my peers awaits my trial
But there's no hope now, I'm in denial
So deliver my verdict for lack of sin
Before the clouds grow dark and the storm rolls in

[Outro]
The storm rolls in and the storm rolls in
The storm rolls in and the storm rolls in
The storm rolls in and the storm rolls in
The storm rolls in and the storm rolls in
Life goes on, it gets so tight
Burning bridges in the night
Watching as they're set alight
Dancing as the flames burn bright
Life goes on, it gets so tight
Burning bridges in the night
Watching as they're set alight
Dancing as the flames burn bright
Someone save me from myself
I know I'm toxic, I need your help
Someone save me from myself
I know I'm toxic, I need your help
Someone save me from myself
I know I'm toxic, I need your help
Someone save me from myself
I know I'm toxic, I need your help
