It's Come To This Lyrics
And I found my head uncrowned and all life's sweet nectar flowing down
the cracks and seams wasted on some petty little prayers
And I
reached up for despair but I was well below that cherished stage and
all
my mangled hopes all song unsung
Chorus:
I fear I've wasted all my sun
I fear I've wasted all my time
Everything is faded
Smiles are fabricated now
I fear I've wasted all my sun
I fear I've wasted all my time
Held my eyes closed for too long
And I ran out through the streets in hopes that I might find it there
but all my buildings stared back at me tenantless and bare
and I
reached up for the sky, but it always seemed so far away transcendent
thoughts you gave lie atrophied and broken
(chorus)
And I sat when I should have stood; swallowed when I should have spit
until now I only recognize me in pictures taken long ago
and
all the changes simply haunt and never go away
a friend will tell when I hit hell, I may not feel the change
Held my eyes closed for too long
Held my eyes closed for too long
Just before I go don't you offer any sweet advice because where were
all
your shoulders when I needed them so long ago
and
now with legs weak and weary from this silly dance
with a suitcase fulof memories, I pack my bags and slowly drift away
Hold my breath, wish that I could find a place
To hideaway
Hideaway, take me now
I cannot face another round
the cracks and seams wasted on some petty little prayers
And I
reached up for despair but I was well below that cherished stage and
all
my mangled hopes all song unsung
Chorus:
I fear I've wasted all my sun
I fear I've wasted all my time
Everything is faded
Smiles are fabricated now
I fear I've wasted all my sun
I fear I've wasted all my time
Held my eyes closed for too long
And I ran out through the streets in hopes that I might find it there
but all my buildings stared back at me tenantless and bare
and I
reached up for the sky, but it always seemed so far away transcendent
thoughts you gave lie atrophied and broken
(chorus)
And I sat when I should have stood; swallowed when I should have spit
until now I only recognize me in pictures taken long ago
and
all the changes simply haunt and never go away
a friend will tell when I hit hell, I may not feel the change
Held my eyes closed for too long
Held my eyes closed for too long
Just before I go don't you offer any sweet advice because where were
all
your shoulders when I needed them so long ago
and
now with legs weak and weary from this silly dance
with a suitcase fulof memories, I pack my bags and slowly drift away
Hold my breath, wish that I could find a place
To hideaway
Hideaway, take me now
I cannot face another round

This song is mainly about someone who is severly depressed. His emotions are all false and he hates the place he's in. He keeps trying to find hope in many places, but nothing helps him at all, and everything that was giving to him lies broken and wasted. He also realizes that he doesn't have much time left, and most of his life has been wasted. So, cursing the people who didn't help him, he leaves for good. Rather good music, in my opinion
