I wish you could know 
I wish you could see 
I wish I could show you 
What it was to be 
Alive before we knew the world that you now see 

As we endure 
What is to come 
Please know I'm sorry 
For all that we have done 

Time won't wait 
As we dissolve 
Giving in to our fate 
That won't absolve 
The lies we told ourselves 
To minimize the pain 
Our denial of the truth 
Leaves us with the blame 

I wanted so much more 
I wanted everything 
Now what can we show for 
All we used to be 
We are too far from the shore 
Drowning in debris 

As we endure what is to come 
Please know I'm sorry 
For all that we have done 

Time won't wait 
As we dissolve 
Giving in to our fate 
That won't absolve 
The lies we told ourselves 
To minimize the pain 
Our denial of the truth 
Leaves us with the blame 

Time won't wait 
As we dissolve 
Giving in to our fate 
That won't absolve 
The lies we told ourselves 
To minimize the pain 
Our denial of the truth 
Leaves us with the blame
