I had a dream, a vision so clear
We've conquered the world, have nothing to fear
But now the sky is grey, the stars have lost their way
Our castle in the air has crumbled into dismay
We built our worlds on promises and dreams
But nothing's ever as perfect as it seems
Broken hopes and shattered dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
We reached for the sky but fell from grace
Now I'm lost in this empty space
Every word you said felt like a lie
Promises made just to watch them die
We held on so tight but slipped through the night
Now I'm left here alone with no ending
We built our worlds on promises and dreams
But nothing's ever as perfect as it seems
Broken hopes and shattered dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
We reached for the sky but fell from grace
Now I'm lost in this empty space
We built our worlds on promises and dreams
But nothing's ever as perfect as it seems
But nothing's ever as perfect as it seems
Broken hopes and shattered dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
We reached for the sky but fell from grace
Now I'm lost in this empty space
Every word you said felt like a lie
Promises made just to watch them die
We held on so tight but slipped through the night


on so tight they'll slip through the night now i'm left here alone with no end in sight
every word you said felt like a lie promises made just to watch them die
now i'm left here alone with no end in sight we've built our broken hopes and shattered dreams
nothing's ever what it seems we've reached for the sky but fell from grace
now i'm lost in this empty space
here i stand with my heart in my hands wondering if i'll ever understand
how something so right could turn out so wrong in the silence i'll find a way to carry on
all the proud for what it seems nothing's ever what it seems
all i'm lost in this empty space the lost in this empty space
all the plans we made all the parts we paved now they're just echoes of a love we couldn't save
i'm picking up the pieces trying to find my way
you
but the light has faded and the colors turned to gray
but the light has faded and the colors turned to gray
but the light has faded and the colors turned to gray
broken hopes and shattered dreams nothing's ever what it seems
we reached for the sky but fell from grace
now i'm lost in this empty space
it's a
it's a
here i stand with my heart in my hands wondering if i'll ever understand
