lyrics

Don't ask about my future
I have nothing new to say
I'm starving for some honesty
But a blind dog can't be taught to see

I'm running and running and running
And running out of breath
Yet I can never keep up
I'm running and running and running
And running away
I'm trying not to look back

I'm a collection of wasted potentials
A museum of things that no one sees
I'm bitter, my sweetness is just artificial
I'm fooling the innocent tongues with ease

Don't ask about my future
I don't know what you want to hear
I never planned to be this old
Once spoken, words can't be untold.

I'm falling and falling and falling
And falling behind
Questioning my luck
I'm falling and falling and falling
And falling apart
I'm trying not to give up

A collection of empty spaces and garbage
Existent achievements that no one validates
I'm watching the ashes fall from the glimmering red
That death so impatiently awaits

Don't ask about my future
There is nothing there to see
Don't ask about my future
I don't know where I will be.
