No You Never

No, you never had nothing way down here
No, you never escape from future fear
No, you never did dare have those grand ideas
Wait so long for your day in the sun

No, I never heard hope pass from your lips
There's a permanent war here, clench your fists
No, you never dare hope when you know the risks
Who's to know when the battle is won?

Each day just like the one before
Strung out, wake up and climb the walls
See all the bridges burning
And so the world keeps turning
Each day just like the one before
Strung out, wake up and climb the walls
See all the bridges burning
And so the world keeps turning

I understand
I cannot escape the fool I am
So, so hollow
I understand
I cannot escape the fool I am
Sweet, sweet sorrow

No, you never had nothing way down here
No, you never escape from future fear
No, you never did dare have those grand ideas
Wait so long for your day in the sun

Each day just like the one before
Locked down, wake up and climb the walls
I see the flags unfurling
And so the world keeps turning
Each day just like the one before
Locked down, wake up and climb the walls
I see the flags unfurling
And so the world keeps turning

I understand
I cannot escape the fool I am
So, so hollow
I understand
I cannot escape the fool I am
Sweet, sweet sorrow

No, you never did dare have those grand ideas
Wait so long for your day in the sun
