I've Wasted Years.

I fight back my fears with the light of reality.
A meadow framed in sunshine yet trapped within a tragedy.
A multitude of moments lost over many years.
Wisdom of the ages born from the sages.
Giving reality a boost through sacrifice of my own life.
As my gaze is pulled from a prism’s embrace, shards of glass pierced with light.

I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
Yeah, years...

Many moments captured with a slight of hand.
Devilish details caught within a circle of BS.
Working freely, donating one's life towards the pursuit of love.
Captured within the lives of others, stolen moments of utter brilliance.

I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
Yeah, years...

A circular game of perpetual sin.
Freedom’s lost when the fix is in.
The Devil uses words against all rules.
Using us as nothing but tools.

We have been hopping through time and space.
Doomed is humanity if we can’t turn about face.
Our last breath shall be encased by a single nuke.
Nothing more than dust and sand, cold, devoid of life.
Life is worth living, so I let you all go.
You’re all worth the pain and agony, but we are all puppets to fate.

I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
Yeah, years...

A dagger’s throw, cast for no reason at all.
This is humanities' final curtain call.
Our freedom’s been lost in the actions of sin.
Our flaw is defined through laws which warp reason.
Life is a priceless gift which is sacred.
But we justify hate by everything imaginable.

I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
Yeah, years...

I’ve embraced my life with humility and appreciation.
I tried to bring reason and love towards you all.
But fear is used to justify sin within a perpetual circle.
Life is irreplaceable regardless of how we spend it.
What’s the point of it all if there is no humanity at all?
Try taking a moment walking within the path of another.

I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
I’ve wasted years (years, years).
Yeah, years...
