All We Have Is Nothing

When did things get like this?
When did we together become broken?
I have no memories of us being torn apart,
all I remember is us always being broken
We had our illusions of being whole
but under the surface we are just ruins,
no more, no less

This is all we got now,
pieces and fragments of illusions
that were crushed underneath the weight of truth
We stilll carry them with us wherever we go,
not knowing of a world without lies,
not knowing how it is to live outside the darkness

Look at us now
There is nothing left of our illusions,
you crushed them under your foot
We stand here, all alone, not knowing what to do
We can\'t go back to what was
We have to build up a new life, without you
and start all over again

You have no place left in our hearts,
you mean nothing to us, no more, never
You have forsaken more
than you ever can get back
It\'s all too late for that now
Even if you regretted what you did
there\'s no way we would forgive you
Not atfer this

This is all we got now,
pieces and fragments of illusions
that were crushed underneath the weight of truth
We stilll carry them with us wherever we go,
reminding ourselves to never end up like that again
To never get trapped
among the lies in the drakness again

Still, you are here beside us, living, breathing
We have not yet dared to tell the truth
Even though we know that the truth lasts longer
we have lived for so long in lies
that the freedom scares us
We don\'t have the courage
to stand up for ourselves and break away

We are afraid, terrified
There are so many changes
connected with this decision
If we choose to follow the wrong path
we all might end up dead
but if we choose the right path
the chanse of surviving is higher
It will be hard on us
and we will have to tackle many obstacles
to reach our destination
but in the end it is all worth it

This is all we got now,
pieces and fragments of illusions
that were crushed underneath the weight of truth
We stilll carry them with us wherever we go,
not daring to throw them away,
afraid of breaking free and starting all over again

This is all we got now,
pieces and fragments of illusions
that were crushed underneath the weight of truth
We stilll carry them with us wherever we go,
but in our dreams we burn them to ashes
and bury the ashes miles beneath us
Then we wake up an realize it was just a dream
Realize that all we got is nothing
