I'm treading in this wine
A forever never to last
Limelight wilts the roses
Thrown to stage
To stay red
Glory of the past
I am deeper in this
More than I ever
Thought I'd be
What happened to me?
What happened to
The world that once
Laid at my feet?
This is never what
I wanted, it's just
What I've come to know
To live some life
Of hollow glass
Doomed to the darkness
Never to glow

I'm treading in this wine
A forever never to last
Limelight wilts the roses
Thrown to stage
To stay red
Glory of the past
I am deeper in this
More than I ever
Thought I'd be
What happened to me?
What happened to
The world that once
Laid at my feet?
This is never what
I wanted, it's just
What I've come to know
To live some life
Of hollow glass
Doomed to the darkness
Never to glow
