ONWARDS

Today is the first day of my life

I threw the match, set it all alight

We'll sit and watch it burn

I see nothing in your eyes

Are you impressed?

Are you impressed?

Last night was the last night of that life

Where I pretend that I don't care

"I don't have dreams, so I can't fail"

Now I am not afraid to say

"I'm terrified I'll fail"

I set myself on fire

Just to see

If I could get your respect, would you

Would you bow down to me?

I set myself on fire

Now I see

That we need to feed the hand

The hand that feeds

Come sit and watch it burn

Hope with flames comes rebirth

But I won't hold my breath
