I'll never see what you want me to see
I'll never be what you want me to be
Face down with my head on the ground
You're just a distant memory
So tell me now if I'm gonna make it out of this
Tell me now if I need to be scared
Tell me how I'm supposed to leave it all behind
And I'll tell you that I'm unprepared
Wasting away
I don't know if my soul can be saved
Wasting away
I don't know if my soul can be saved
Just an empty vessel
Paying to live
I'll never see what you want me to see
I'll never be what you want me to be
Face down with my head on the ground
You're just a distant memory
How long is the breath that I have to hold
Before I'm worth my weight in gold?
How does it feel? How does it feel?
Only the lonely know
You can take it
You can leave it
Say goodbye
You can watch me burn it all away
♪
Yeah!
You're just a ghost, a memory lost in the smoke
You're just a ghost, a memory lost in the smoke
How long is the breath that I have to hold
Before I'm worth my weight in gold?
How does it feel? How does it feel?
Only the lonely know
Walking alone down the longest road
And you did this to yourself
You know you're on your own
You're just a ghost, a memory lost in the smoke
You're just a ghost, you left me all alone
No escape, no hope
No goodbyes to the ones I love the most
No escape, no hope
No goodbyes to the ones I love the most
Trapped in this vessel, I'm wasting away
How long is the breath that I have to hold
Before I'm worth my weight in gold?
How does it feel? How does it feel?
Only the lonely know
Only the lonely know
Only the lonely know
You know I'm wasting away
