Enforsaken

Enforsaken - All For Nothing lyrics

rate me

[Words and music by Steven Stell]

I've had enough

Of these worthless words you speak

And it's become too much for me to take

Can you reach inside of my dead heart

And restore my faith, because it's lost

Lost in your hopeless, empty eyes

Eyes so blind to all that's real

It's a shame that you will never see

See what you've left inside of me

Take the time to do it right

And cleanse yourself within this light

Disconnect to re-invent

what is it that you lack

that holds you back somehow?

Break me down just once again

You'll find no answers within

One false move unlocks the truth

Who is it that once said

"The past repeats itself"

Who fucking cares!

And so it has to end

There's no reason to pretend

And as the seasons change

We find there's no one left to blame

So when all is said and done

I find I'm not the only one

This lovely misery we shared

Was all for nothing

Love gone wrong

But was it ever really truly right

Who's to know and who's to say

There's no reason to stay true in vain

Say what you will to ease your pain

And I should've seen it from the start

A fake that hides behind a fragile smile

Can you truly build a perfect life

With designs custom made to suit a whore

Take the time to do it wrong

and see what's been missed all along

Talk is cheap and so are you

Whatever will this poor girl do to free herself?

And if you ever do decide

To take hold of your makeshift life

Wipe away all of your tears

And realize that no one cares

you've failed again

You're on your own

And so it has to end

There's no reason to pretend

And as the seasons change

We find there's no one left to blame

So when all is said and done

I find I'm not the only one

This lovely misery we shared

Was all for nothing

Rise....And soar above the rest

And realize you've passed their test

To turn back now

would surely crush all you've gained

and that would be quite a shame

So swallow it as it comes

beacause too much is not enough

And if our paths cross again

don't dare speak a word

I've heard it all before

save your dying breath

I don't care anymore

There's no more you and me

but please don't fail to see

That everything we had

still lives in memories...

[Lead: James Murphy]

And so the cycle continues

Outstretched arms

won't you warm me with your cold embrace

and fuel my hate just once again

Deep inside there's still a part of me

That longs for your faithless, bitter touch

But these feelings never really last

no longer slave to your foul kiss

I have washed my hands of all of this

I've regained my life, you're dead to me

Take the time to do it right

and cleanse yourself within this light

Disconnect to re-invent

What is it that we lack, that holds us back somehow?

And If you ever do decide

to take hold of your makeshift life

wipe away all of your tears

And Realize that no one cares

we've failed again

you're on your own

And so it has to end

There's no reason to pretend

And as the seasons change

We find there's no one left to blame

So when all is said and done

I find I'm not the only one

This lovely misery we shared

Was all for nothing...
