I Never Wanted Songtext

von As I Lay Dying

I never wanted
And I never cared before
Take it back
This is a new day

How I long to regress
To the days before I took upon myself
The obsessions of this world (for tomorrow may fall)
A day of innocence equating beauty (and today is already gone)

Tomorrow may fall
Today is already gone

Take it back
This is a new day (I never wanted)
This is a new day (I never cared before)
I never wanted
And I never cared before

I've grown tired of chasing
Convinced I was in need
And now the years I've spent
Only a slave to this
Tomorrow may fall
And today is already gone
I will no longer adore
These things that will never satisfy me

I have seen my world change
And then go back to where it came

In this vicious circle
We are brought back to life
Only to die

But without these barren obsessions
I am simply free

I have seen my world change
Then go back to where it came
