[Verse 1]

I don’t even know what I thought I wanted

But I thought by now I’d have

What as a kid I thought I saw in my parents

I expected

By now every fundamental fear

Would fade into what I thought they fell back on


[Chorus 1]

I’ve come of age

It’s the same


[Verse 2]

I don’t even know how

I thought I’d escape this

I don’t know what I thought

Was behind the curtain in the distance

The real death

Was never in the dying – only in the resistance


[Chorus 2]

I've tried to blame

It's a hollow game
