How It Ends

If this is how it ends
Would you let it play out?
Could you do it again?
If this is how it goes
Could you keep it inside?
So nobody knows
The thoughts twist in your head
You toss and you turn as you lay on your bed
The nightmares never end
You try to reach out for anyone’s hand
It’s colder now, you feel the chill
You hold your breath so time stands still but
Everything stays the same
And you cry: “When did I lose control”?
And you cry: “When did I lose it all”?
The light begins to fade
You search for a spark like a moth to the flame
The cycles flip and change
There’s no black and white, just ennui and haze
You’re running now, you start to slip
You grit your teeth and clench your fist, but
Everything stays the same
And you cry: “When did I lose control”?
And you cry: “When did I lose it all”?
When did the world implode?
And swallow my heart and soul
The clock doesn’t slow as we grow old
(This is how it ends) You’re so in denial
(This is how it ends) You’re so in denial
(This is how it ends) You’re so in denial
This is how it ends
