Lifeless by Robin-Huws Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He's been in tears all night
It's been a long, long, long drive
These friendly lies
Won't work on him tonight
Wasted time on earth
Not even one relationship's worked
He parks to the side
Wishing the tides would drown out his mind
[Hook]
Will this end these lifeless cycles
Always move in lifeless circles
Will this end these lifeless cycles
Made to be my end
Will this end these lifeless cycles
Always move in lifeless circles
Will this end these lifeless cycles
In over my head
Over my head
]Refrain] (Fu)
What else could this become
What more could go undone
Why suffer it much longer
When you know just how it runs
When you know you’ve had enough
What else is there to do
How bout you take a leap
A leap into the blue
[Verse 2]
He stops to think
If it's a curse or gift
He turns or blinks
Someone else made it
He knows it could end in a second
If only he'd stop remembering
How they danced in the light
Next day she died
Years down the line
Beginning to think
This might be his time to dive
[Hook]
Will this end these lifeless cycles
Always move in lifeless circles
Will this end these lifeless cycles
Made to be my end
Will this end these lifeless cycles
Always move in lifeless circles
Will this end these lifeless cycles
In over my head
Over my head
[Verse 3: Fu]
It’s the pain you can’t condone
The pain of being nothing
Believing nothing
Feeling all
Knowing something that they don’t
Showing happy when they poke
It’s the pain that kills your soul
It’s the pain you cannot kill
Unless you take that final pill
Time to use your final will
The one prayer you’ve not said
Taking your life by your hands
Thinking it’s better to return
To the nothingness beyond
What’s heaven without the souls
You’ve been nothing here alive
So make death the final goal
[Verse 3 con'td: Akotowaa]
I know you never saw yourself where you are now
Not when you were still drunk on the promise of your youth
I remember you sung with the power of a soloist
Whose voice could bring the choir itself to its knees
And everywhere you stumbled
Your fall was always cushioned by the reassurance of your dreams
Then heaven claimed your biggest fan
And now you feel no further forward in this than when you first began
Waiting for ages for a takeoff the world just couldn't seem to bring
And now you're considering trying to fly off without wings?
But listen
I need you to remember you're on a mission
And there's a reason why birds of the air don't belong in the ocean
I need you to stay
Personified magnificence
You take my breath away
You can't cut yours off in haste
Gently he steps
Away from the pier
Praying that grace overtakes the despair
Holding on tight to the hope of a life
Full and complete, in the truth of the light
