We Don't Dream Of Heaven Anymore
We don't dream of heaven anymore
That’s too colorful of a place for us now
We're used to grey walls and metal frames
Monotones and modernity
We forgot the flames of love
And remember the ashes of hate
We go to bed in our grey room and
We don't dream of heaven anymore
Age has aged us to soon
By eighteen we've lost all sense of tune
Where did the lights go
Where did adventure run off to
Time has wandered away and we've lost it
Life has killed us to soon
We don’t dream of heaven anymore
We're to busy paying our dues
College debt and worn shoes
Alcohol for a chance of freedom
Drugs for a sense of feeling
We've become the devils of our childhood fears
That monster under the bed was just our future selves
hiding because it didn't want you to see.
Didn't want you to know
What you would become.
We don’t dream of heaven anymore
We don’t dream much of anything anymore
Resigned to our fate we let go of hope
Hell burned it away a long time ago
We don't deserve halos
We don’t dream of heaven anymore.
