The Otherwise Misfortunate (Single Edit)

And somebody told you
To hold onto the broken pieces of your past
A simple order of great proportions
Cause the memories won't last
It sounds like old minds can still recover
But something down there's glistening
The only message you can discover
Sounds like, "Are you listening?"

But you can't stop now
You've gone too far
It's way too late
To change your star

Or so you hope, it's over now
The times you've left behind
The strangest lies you tell yourself
Are truths in another mind

And here divided between two reasons
The blessed and the fallen star
A strange religion of hope and wonder
That only leaves you with a scar
But in the end you keep moving forward
Just to see what you can do
You can't deny that strange ambition
That leads you onto something new

And you won't stop now
You've gone too far
It's way too late
To hit restart

Or so you hope, it's over now
The times you've left behind
The strangest lies you tell yourself
Are truths in another mind

The deafening silence has left you listing
Slowly drifting on through life
The cold enclosure of your weakness
The dying embers of your strife
You raise your head up and shout it loudly
"You won't deny me anymore!"
But in the end it only serves to
Slam you into another door

And you won't stop now
You've gone too far
It's way too late
To hit restart

Or so you hope, it's over now
The times you've left behind
The strangest lies you tell yourself
Are truths in another mind
