Burned at Both Ends lyrics

There's nothing left now that doesn't come from suffering
Victims of time, we're defined by our history
Forever lost, and now
I don't know who the f*ck I have become

Where has my life gone?

I'm holding on to a life I'll never get back
It's too hard to let go
I'm on the right train but the wrong tracks
Trying not to derail

Nothing is like it was before
I know not who I am anymore
Chasing something that's behind me
When will I be set free?

So what is left of this life that's in front of me?
Is there a future when you only see in memories?
When every loss, every beauty
Just reminds you of the past

How can you just let go?

I'm holding on to a life I'll never get back
It's too hard to let go
I'm on the right train but the wrong tracks
Trying not to derail
Nothing is like it was before
I know not who I am anymore
Chasing something that's behind me
When will I be set free?

Broken promises left to mend
Burning the candle at both ends
No light to find my way back home
But I don't know where "home" is anymore
The sinking ship has washed ashore

This misery has got to end
What's done is done
The past is a strange place

Look at me now, a fool with everything
But yet he's still so hollow
Look at us now, no lights
Just struggling to find our way back home

I'm holding on to a life I'll never get back
It's too hard to let go
I'm on right train but the wrong tracks
Trying not to derail

Nothing is like it was before
I know not who I am anymore
Chasing something that's behind me
When will I be set free?
Broken promises left to mend
Burning the candle at both ends
No light to find my way back home
But I don't know where "home" is
And without you, I'm hopeless
