lyrics

Never had a dream but you'd never know
Hope was all we had and it seemed to show
Us against the world till you said it best
We were walking abreast but alone all along

Never had a dream but you'd never know
Hope was all we had and it seemed to show
Us against the world till you said it best
We were walking abreast but alone all along

It ended with a wave of guilt
And torrents of tragedy
It started with a dream we built together

There's so much left to say,
But grief is not a language that I can translate
The words escaped
Or simply never came

I own my name, I own my pain
I'm simply asking you to do the same
I lost my faith in what we've made
I'll always drag you down if you let me

Did we ever have a chance in the first place?
Was it all a delusion from the first day?
I've given up hope on this world to change,
And all I ask is that you do the same

I own my name, I own my pain
I'm simply asking you to do the same
I lost my faith in what we've made
I'll always drag you down if you let me

It's getting rather hard to stand my ground
It's getting rather hard to stick around
I've given up hope on this world to change
I've lost my faith in what we've made

I will always drag you down if you let me

Never had a dream but you'd never know
Hope was all we had and it seemed to show
Us against the world till you said it best
We were walking abreast but alone all along

Never had a dream but you'd never know
Hope was all we had and it seemed to show
Us against the world till you said it best
We were walking abreast but alone all along

I own my name, I own my pain
I'm simply asking you to do the same
I've lost my faith in what we've made
I'll always drag you down if you let me

I've given up hope on this world to change
I've lost my faith in what we've made
There's so much left to say

There's so much more to say
But the words escaped me
They simply never came.
