Stepped through the threshold, I made it beyond the bend
As my feet touch the ground I feel the worlds extend
As the blinding light fades into color I feel my reborn skin
Everything is different now but there's still a hole within
Is this what I longed for, why am I still wanting more?
Why am I not satisfied?
I gave up everything for this and I'm still hollow inside
Surrounded by a family, they're strangers to me now
Surrounded by familiar places but I don't know my way around
Maybe I got it all wrong, the scenery has changed
Everything is better now but I still feel the fucking same
I think I'm not meant to be happy
No matter how far I go
Is this what I longed for, why am I still wanting more?
Why am I not satisfied?
I gave up everything for this and I'm still hollow inside
Time passes but I still stay the same
I loathe the person that I became
Another life, another place, what I am was not replaced
Reflection changes everything
And I'd like to think that I've learnt from my mistakes
But I can't go back, for here I'm trapped, I can't change my fate
Maybe I was the problem all along
How I saw the world, now I can't return
Never took a chance to stop and smell the roses
I'm buried beneath as my body decomposes
Convinced myself nothing was right
I wasted time, a wasted life
With all that I've learned, it all stays the same
Nothing I can do, nothing I can change
And maybe I was the problem, it was me all along
I couldn't fix how I saw the world
And now there's nothing I can do, there's no way that I can return
And I can recognize now that I should've taken a moment
A chance to stop and smell the roses
If I'd just taken that moment to reflect
Maybe I wouldn't be buried beneath them
As my body decomposes
And I convinced myself that nothing was right
That there was no reason for me to stay
I wasted time, a wasted life
And with all that I've learned I can say it all stays the same
There's nothing that I can change
I can't go back, I can't replay
And if I could, would I be happy to be alive?
There's no way that I could know, maybe in another life
