Tommy Lellan - Wiser Words Lyrics

I didn't think that I would live this long
I didn't want to go on forever
They kept telling me to move on
As if I could just pull a lever
There's nothing as far as the eye can see
And all I've got is my own heart
If I sail away out there, will I meet you?
Or are you further than I thought?
Wiser Words
Where are you now?
Waiting for me in the afterglow
I need answers
I'm burning up
I wanna be like the rest of them
So what the f*ck?
How come life always seems so bad?
How come the odds are not in my favour?
I'm tired of being tired all day long
Nothing left here to savour
They say it's all about perception
But you can't just ignore the facts
Could you be so kind to collect us soon?
I want my nostalgia back
Wiser Words
Where are you now?
Waiting for me in the afterglow
I need answers
I'm burning up
I wanna be like the rest of them
So what the..?
My dear loved ones, where'd you go?
Is our future merely bones?
All the hope and work put in
Dashed to cinders, just like that
Will darkness win?
Wiser Words
Where are you now?
Waiting for me in the afterglow
I need answers
I'm burning up
I wanna be like the rest of them
So give me love
My dear loved ones, where'd you go?
Is our future merely bones?
All the hope and work put in
Dashed to cinders, just like that
Will darkness win?
