Everyone Who I Knew and Loved Is Gone Lyrics

I pass by homes where I used to roam,
and everyone who I knew and loved is gone
I think I've lost my mind,
it feels like the end of my time
As I head downtown,
it's freezing out,
but it's the cold that burns
that makes me feel alive
I know I'll never be
good enough in your eyes

Instead I waste away,
living this life I hate
Tied down by all the things I can't escape,
I can't erase
Living in the shadows
of everything that surrounds me

I've only ever wanted
to make something of my name,
but now I'm stuck heading down
the wrong way on a one-way street

So I head back home
there's nowhere else to go
Consumed by all the thoughts
that rip at my soul,
an image of someone
I don't even know
Please don't read into this,
please just listen to me
Heart beats cold,
I'm slowly letting go

Tomorrow is just another day
for me to make the same mistakes
Don't follow in my footsteps,
please just listen to me
