Departures - A Life In Pieces Lyrics

Falling short of everything you ever thought you'd be
Losing hope, losing hope in happy memories
[x2]

Trapped in a life
You never thought could be yours
Left to exist in denial
Weeks come and go
Wishing you could be someone else
But your dead weight is pulling you apart [x2]

Sitting outside of everything
Waiting for a life to start
But these are your salad days
And they're quickly rotting away

Scratching out an existence
Against the backdrop of a troubled life
Losing all your momentum
To the pulsing?? of fluorescent lights

Scratching out an existence
Against the backdrop of a troubled life
Losing all your momentum
To the soundtrack of fluorescent lights
Of fluorescent lights

Just left screaming into open silence
Of "what could have been's"
And "I wish I'd tried harder"
Longing to be someone else
Wishing to be someone else
[x2]
