[Verse 1]
Until the pages of this book are filled with emptiness
I’m still suspended by a thread, expecting nothing less
I feel my kindred little ways... I know how my story ends
[Chorus]
Like me... it’s not your gift to choose—I know you’re going to lose
Like me... this futile circumstance—you never had a chance
Like me...
[Verse 2]
I’m here, walking in a city that is red again
I’m here, living with the dead again
Knowing why I’m here again
[Chorus]
Like me... it’s not your gift to choose—I know you’re going to lose
Like me... this futile circumstance—you never had a chance
Like me...
[Verse 3]
I can’t stay here forever
The hell is, I just can’t remember
I see myself in desperation
The cyanide of realization
I fall...
I fall...
[Chorus]
Like me... it’s not your gift to choose—I know you’re going to lose
Like me... this futile circumstance—you never had a chance
Like me...
