lyrics

Here lies the dreams that I had before
reminding me I should be more.
They're better broken on the floor.
Here lies an empty shell,
a prison made of just one cell.
Shut myself inside and
wonder why I'm trapped in hell.

CHORUS:
I am not the only man
buried by his well-made plans,
a prisoner of his youth.
I'm tearing down the gilded cage–
the product of a younger age
–that once upon a time I knew.
Good riddance, I'm done with you.

Here lies the perfect plan,
the legend of the also-ran.
Ambitious towers made of sand.
Here stands a dedication
built upon the ruins of my aspirations.
An epitaph for procrastination.
Fear is a disease
and I'm the medication.
(CHORUS x2)
