it takes more time than i've ever had

drains the life from me

makes me want to forget

as young as i was, i felt older back then

more disciplined, stronger and certain

but i was scared to death of eternity

i was saved by grace

but destroyed by naivety

and i lied to myself

and said it was for the best

so now faith is replaced with a logic so cold

i've disregarded what i was

now that i'm older

and i know much more than i did back then

but the more i learn

the more i can't understand

and i've become content with this life that i lead

where i drink to much and don't believe in much of anything

and i lie to myself

and say "it's for the best."

we're moving forward, but holding ourselves back

and we're waiting on something that will never come
