lyrics
We're waiting, we know it's gonna come to be eventually
Rotating, the world keeps pushing us through days relentlessly
For all I know this could be the best we get
For all we know we could be reaching the end of our fill of it
Yesterday's dead, tomorrow's in your head
Waiting to begin as you near the end
Then pining for the very time you've killed
There's something better on the other side
I'm gonna drop everything here, gonna make it mine
Because it's time for a change
It's time it's time it's time it's time for a change
I'm feeling restless and less rested and spun
I'm taking shots with my shadow til the demons are done
Then find another broken brother while we wait for the sun
Go! For all I know this could be the best we get
For all we know we could be reaching the end of our fill of it
All I can say in the light of day is the same I see when the light's on me
And I'll find a shadow there, you know I will
It's that time already, I'm feeling generic again
I've given it six weeks, it usually passes by then
I'm all outta charm here, the thrill's gone and slipped out of hand
You can't recreate it, it's phony if it's in demand
Oh paragon, give back everything I been missing
(Tell me a story of days bright and gold
Tell me how cheaply I made sure they were sold)
(How we took it as if without care
You can never come back if you were never there)
(Oh paragon, give back everything I been missing)
Nobody watches as I exit from the cell I made from bricks dragged from the bottom of the well
I've sung this song before but changed the words tonight
So long as no one reads them, think I'll be all right
All right! For all I know, this could be the best we get
For all we know we could be reaching the end of our fill of it
All I can say in the light of day is the same I see when the light's on me
And I'll find a shadow there, you know I will
For all we know
Rotating, the world keeps pushing us through days relentlessly
For all I know this could be the best we get
For all we know we could be reaching the end of our fill of it
Yesterday's dead, tomorrow's in your head
Waiting to begin as you near the end
Then pining for the very time you've killed
There's something better on the other side
I'm gonna drop everything here, gonna make it mine
Because it's time for a change
It's time it's time it's time it's time for a change
I'm feeling restless and less rested and spun
I'm taking shots with my shadow til the demons are done
Then find another broken brother while we wait for the sun
Go! For all I know this could be the best we get
For all we know we could be reaching the end of our fill of it
All I can say in the light of day is the same I see when the light's on me
And I'll find a shadow there, you know I will
It's that time already, I'm feeling generic again
I've given it six weeks, it usually passes by then
I'm all outta charm here, the thrill's gone and slipped out of hand
You can't recreate it, it's phony if it's in demand
Oh paragon, give back everything I been missing

All right! For all I know, this could be the best we get
For all we know we could be reaching the end of our fill of it
All I can say in the light of day is the same I see when the light's on me
And I'll find a shadow there, you know I will
For all we know
