Departures - A Life In Pieces lyrics

Falling short of everything you ever thought you'd be Losing hope in happy memories Trapped in a life you never thought would 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 Sitting outside of everything Waiting for a life to start 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 Just left screaming into open silence Of "what could have been's" and "I wish I'd tried harder's" Longing to be someone else, wishing to be someone else
