lyrics

The light it starts to fade
as i walk away, i walk away.
The curtain hits the stage
and my heart is racing, its racing.
Im breaking mirrors just for fun
to see the abstract reflection.
Its all a game I used to play.

(Chorus)

Its not like i'm happy with who i've become
i'm wasting time (Im wasting time)
Its not like i wanna be like this forever
be like this forever.

Be like this forever (x2)

My patience is wearing thin its growing harder
to find myself within.
The tide is changing and its pulling me under
and i can't hold my breath for much longer.

(Chorus)

Its not like i'm happy with who i've become i'm wasting time (Im wasting time)
Its not like i wanna be like this forever, be like this forever.

Be like this forever (Forever Forever Forever)

Just shut the door and turn the lights out.
And fall asleep to dream you make them so proud.
Your never gonna live up to their expectations.
Expectations.
Its not like i'm happy with who i've become, i'm wasting time.

(Chorus)

Its not like i wanna be like this forever, be like this forever.
Its not like i'm happy with who i've become i'm wasting time (Im wasting time)
Its not like i wanna be like this forever, be like this forever.

Be like this forever (x2)
