The Glory Days

All I can feel is the beat of my heart

And I count every breath that I take

The darkness will drain all the pleasure and pain

And delete all emotions inside of me

(For better or worse)

There's a shadow in my soul now

I feel it inside as I am fading away

(The replay of my life)

I see it running in my mind now

Familiar faces smiling back at me

On the day I was born

Now I am dying all alone

A view from the past will remind me of the good times

That I had in the innocent days

I was one of the young with a spirit so strong

Never knew make believe from reality

(The tears that I cry)

Through the eyes of the betrayer

It might be the last that I taste in this life

(There's no room for the sorrow) in this is image of a lifetime

Only delight and the joy life has given me

Oh, it's taking me back to the glory days

I smile as I fade in this empty space

The memories awake and it feels like I'm alive

(Like I'm alive) in the glory days.

I have no regrets, I know there is no return

Awaiting the end of it all

But I'm walking on air every minute in here

This is a beautiful way to go

It's taking me back (taking me back) to the glory days

I smile as I fade in this empty space

The memories awake (the memories awake) and it feels like I'm alive

(Like I'm alive) in the glory days.

I know the end will soon be here

And all I am will disappear

I wish I could stay in wonderland

And relive the glory days
