Lyrics
What once were
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We used to be so strong, so fucking strong, look at us now, what we´ve become
This world has weighted us down and we turned into what we once despised. Can we see this journey to an end, can we turn this one around? I´m sick of seeing our potentials pouring out like water in the sand
Feeling out of touch, so far out of time
You hate your kid, you hate your wife, you hate your job, you hate your life
This isn´t what you wanted, what you dreamt of
I wish we could see we can achieve everything we aspire to be
But we´re too busy dwelling in the past living a dream of what we used to be.
Can we let go of the past, open our eyes and see what´s left
Moments doesn´t last we can create our fate as time moves by
We need to realize, it´s in our hands, this is our time
It´s do or die, we have a choice, it´s do or die
