The Slow Decay

The Slow Decay - Polaris

Written by：Rick Schneider/Daniel Furnari/Ryan Siew/Jamie Hails/Jake Steinhauser

Where do we go now

I'm still trying to find the words

A quarter lifetime on

As if a pen and paper could restore

The greatest loss I've known

Every outline of you lingers in the door

Every cigarette a silhouette in ash

Drawn upon the floor

Remember how they told me

You're too young to understand

You will shift just like the weather

As you grow into a man

This I know

My life has flashed before my eyes

And the days all seemed to pass me by

All the pain I earned and the love I lost

Was the only truth

This all will someday soon return to dust

Return to dust

And if we all go to hell

I'll find some peace where I dwell

I never thought there was more to this than met the eye

When I have no more to give

Surrender my right to live

We're only killing time til time kills us and we

Decay together

We're not built to live forever

Content to shed my blissful ignorance

No fire no light an insignificant mistake

And if we all go to hell

I'll find some peace where I dwell

I never thought there was more to this than met the eye

When I have no more to give

Surrender my right to live

We're only killing time til time kills us

My life has flashed before my eyes

And the days all seemed to pass me by

All the pain I earned and the love I lost

Was the only truth

This all will someday soon return to dust
