lyrics

I see no sense in counting the days
when there's only one left,
day after day
I promised to bloom, I promised to perish
forgot it's the cycle that I should cherish

my existence as an act of rebellion
here I am, damned to be free
forge ahead and I will not follow
trot after and I will not lead

The heaviest weight we have to carry:
the burden of eternal recurrence
Nothing stays
Nothing leaves
And I numb myself
Forever

is there more to it?
is there more to know?
I was born to die
You were born to lose

When I sleep tonight
will I start anew?
Am I kind enough
to ever let you go?
