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 nightmare never ends 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
