History Repeats

It comes and goes in waves Will there ever be a life worth all the pain? While they’re building you up, you’ve gotta prepare for the hang Bitter winds blow in to remind you of time you spent killing yourself To find an empty bed Killing yourself to find a place to rest your head Nothing green on the other side Death has no compromise History repeats the same routine again It’s hard to play this game when you can never win Caught between everything that you need to be And what you want for the world to see It’s hard to live with yourself when neither side can be pleased It comes and goes in waves Will there ever be a life worth all this pain? When there’s nothing left for them to take, you leave out the same way you came Bitter winds blow in to remind you of the things you’ll miss Killing yourself to find a better way to live Killing yourself to find a meaning in this Learned to love the misery and lack of company that death is promising me Learned to love the misery and all of the tragedy that death is promising me A little hope will get you nowhere at all You reap what you sow We are not eternal It comes and goes in waves Will there ever be a life worth all this pain? While they’re building you up, you’ve gotta prepare for the hang Bitter winds blow in to remind you of the time you spent killing yourself To find an empty bed Killing yourself to find a place to rest your head We are not eternal
