I used to look for tomorrows
        now I just lament the sorrows.
        There's emptiness I never fill,
        always been a troubled thrill.
        It's a steep price for a ticket
        to a ride that lasts a minute.
        The line is long but moves fast.
        Nothings ever meant to last.
        We never drown in the shallows.
        We always dance in the gallows.
