Cruel Remorse

from Borrowed Time by Catalysts

/

lyrics

I've come to grips with the fact
That there are some things in this world
That I will never be able to accept
And if I let them
Control the way I force myself to breathe
I'll never remember the taste, the touch,
The reason I push myself to succeed

All my life I've spent trying to understand where I lost my way
I've always walked the same road
But me feet are starting to sink
My heart is turning cold

Through my life I've learned
That it's not about letting go
It's about getting hold
Of what tries to make you fall
And finding your balance

In a crooked way of living
I found new means of breathing
I'll take what once tore me down
And give it a new meaning

I carry my burdens with broken legs
Thrown upon my broken back
In hopes to one day
Fix what was never whole
Mend what was never meant
To be anything more than
A measure of my frailty

This town is a graveyard for memories.
Of lovers past and could have beens.
I walk these streets with a cruel remorse,
Wondering if my life has taken it's course

And I find myself when I'm lost and alone,
When I force myself to leave my home
To leave it behind,
And be alone with my mind
To lay it all on the line
And admit that I'm just fine

I'm finally learning how to let things go.
To live my life above the undertow
I've been drowing
In what's left of this
This emptiness
I've learned to call my fucking home

Awake but dreaming
I'm learning how to live on borrowed time
I'm taking my chances
I'm taking what's mine

This feeling
Of emptiness
Doesn't own me anymore
I'm destined for something greater
I'm destined for something more

This doesn't own me anymore.
