Forgotten Like a Dream (Mortality)

Hush over the harbor
I wake to familiar regretful sins
Most days I’m a charmer
But today a sad comedian
Can’t two time the truth
It only worked in our youth
No matter how high we seem
I don’t know why our diamonds never gleam
We could try running faster
Thinking smarter
Playing harder
But in the end
We’re forgotten like a dream
No river on another continent
Could ever chill my bones like those of home
Been in many a translucent crowd
Can easily pick the leaders from the clones
No mattr how high we seem
I don’t know why our diamonds never glam
We could try running faster
Thinking smarter
Playing harder
But in the end
We’re forgotten like a dream
This isn’t forever
So let’s make the most of time
All things we accumulate
We can’t take
Through the pearly gates
We aren’t in this together
We are born and die alone
We could try running faster
Thinking smarter
Playing harder
But in the end
We’re forgotten like a
We’re forgotten like a dream
