Disintegration Lyrics
Lia
Lyrics
Forever has gone
Today is infinity
And yesterday's dreams
Today a faint memory
Forever has gone
Today is infinity
It's time to move on
Forever has gone
Two eyes in the face of billions of voices
I saw the flashing lights
Move further in the distance
The dream was not meant to be
Outside these walls that i have created
The sound of stars colliding
Echoes in the distance
And dreams they shutter
Let it break into a thousand pieces
Let the wind blow it all away
Dreams are fragile but our hearts grow
Stronger from the memories...
Let it break into a thousand pieces
Let the wind blow it all away
Dreams are fragile but our hearts grow
Stronger from the memories...
Renew... the light... the dream...
Forever has gone
Today is infinity
And yesterday's dreams
Today a faint memory
Forever has gone
Today is infinity
It's time to move on
Forever has gone
(Time to move on)
(It's time to move)
(Time to move on)
(It's time to move)
Outside these walls that i have created
The sound of stars colliding
Echoes in the distance
And dreams they shutter
Let it break into a thousand pieces
Let the wind blow it all away
Dreams are fragile but our hearts grow
Stronger from the memories...
Let it break into a thousand pieces
Let the wind blow it all away
Dreams are fragile but our hearts grow
Stronger from the memories...
Renew... the light... the dream...
Forever has gone
Today is infinity
And yesterday's dreams
Today a faint memory
Forever has gone
Today is infinity
It's time to move on
Forever has gone
(Time to move on)
(It's time to move)
(Time to move on)
(It's time to move)
