No Dream Left To Waste

I don't chase lights, I just exist
Sleep feels like another trick
Hope's a debt I'll never pay
So I cut it out the easy way
You painting skies in golden tone
I see the cracks inside the chrome
You're building castles out of smoke
I burned mine down before I woke

And maybe that's the only truth to feel
The part of me that doesn't heal

I don't dream, I don't pretend
Sleep is just another end
Threw away memories to keep the void
At least the dark can't be destroyed
Turned off the light, ripped off fantasy
I burned my heaven out of honesty
I got no ghosts left to chase
Reality comes when nothing stays

There's no dream left to waste
There's no dream left to waste

I used to reach the stars for signs
And then they remind me why
Every wish is just a wound
Every faith becomes a tomb
I wiped my wishes in the drain
Watched them rot and felt no pain
I see the world for what it is
And I made my own kind of bliss

And maybe that's what keeps me sane
To stop expecting more from pain

I don't dream, I don't pretend
Sleep is just another end
Threw away memories to keep the void
At least the dark can't be destroyed
Turned off the light, ripped off fantasy
I burned my heaven out of honesty
I got no ghosts left to chase
Reality comes when nothing stays

There's no dream left to waste
There's no dream left to waste

I tore the wings of every prayer
To see what's left when hope's not there
No visions in color lies, I breathe in grey
What never lives can't die away

I don't dream, I don't pretend
Sleep is just another end
Threw away memories to keep the void
At least the dark can't be destroyed
Turned off the light, ripped off fantasy
I burned my heaven out of honesty
I got no ghosts left to chase
Reality comes when nothing stays

There's no dream left to waste
There's no dream left to waste
No dream left to chase
No dream left to waste
There's no dream left to waste
There's no dream left to waste
