I walk decaying cities of a world upon the brink I watch the earthly creatures one by one become extinct As I run back and forth to keep a roof above my head No hope for tomorrow, the future is dead That empty sinking feeling Deep in the soul No a better kind of world is not possible It cannot be done, beyond my control No a better kind of world is not possible I keep myself distracted by staring at a screen My mind always racing, no longer I dream I swallow prescriptions cause the problem is me My moods far more stable, no longer do I dream of another world I race on ahead as if I don't know My face cracks a smile but the grin is hollow Cause I've got to get used to this reality Expect nothing different from the powers that be That empty sinking feeling Deep in the soul No a better kind of world is not possible It cannot be done, beyond my control A better kind of world is not possible I don't think a change is something I'll live to see I'm far more realistic, no longer I dream I swallow my drugs to silence a scream I keep myself sedated, no longer do I dream of another world Each day the same as the previous one And each day I stay on the grind as I run To that mass burial plot, where I'll surely be missed No, the world I imagine, could never exist That empty sinking feeling Deep in the soul No a better kind of world is not possible It cannot be done, beyond my control A better kind of world is not possible I'm far too sedated to utter a scream But no, no longer, no longer do I dream No longer do I dream No longer do I dream of another world
