I live in shadows and I, Cant hardly breathe cos, That weight of history is, Killing me

I've been living my life, Vicariously through older men.

I live in echos and I, Can't hardly see cos, The light of yesterday is, Blinding me

I've been living my life, Vicariously through older men.

I know that there's nothing left to be, I know that theres nothing left to do, I know that there's nothing left to feel, I know that there's nothing left to steal.

And I know that there's nothing left before me, And I know that there's nothing left behind, I've been living my life vicariously, I know that there's nothing left to find I've been living my life vicariously, I know that there's nothing left to find

I know that there's nothing left to think, I know that there's nothing left to see, I know that there's nothing but the stink, The carcass of what should and could have been.

I know that it's lost and gone, departed, Nothing but the sting of memory, Now that I have lost what I have started, Now I know what could and should have been.
