Regret Lyrics

Everything that isn't from my time and place Just fades away And I know it's only my perception That clouds the things I want to hear you say All the years of desperation I'm like a child without the sense to dream About a life of foolish pride How can I illustrate Annihilate it now
This is everything I am But is it all you've ever grown to see inside Like a broken mirror for my pride And there's an emptiness I feel And there's a silence to my dreams These painful reveries Still punctuate those tragedies I've seen
Nobody promised that I'd be down [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/regret-lyrics-good-riddance.html ] It's like the savage side we've found Conventions we've agreed to follow Defined by safe obscurity Applications balking at protest We sequester and words divide Would I resign if I broke your silence And trampled myself down inside
And if I hold you in my dreams How will I recognize your face And your silent discontent And will my heroes find me there In another time and place Will I regret the time we spent? And all the symbols we've erased Or the words we never traced
