David Alan Roberts - Tragic Cul-de-Sac (feat. Jared Zolik) Lyrics

Cascading through time
Moving toward what we hope to be
Illusions of life lived in a dream
A project of make believe
We carry a corpse
And time will reveal the extent of our decay
We hide from the truth
Pretend we're alive
While stuck in our deadly ways
We search for a way to fill our yearning eyes
Not a reason to live, but a reason not to die
Entrenched in a dream, there's no way to make us act
Our lives have become another tragic cul-de-sac
We always let go we always give in
We search for a good disguise
We change with the times
We get what we want
Which is no surprise
What do we care it's time to survive
No time to be resolute
Just stay with the herd
And follow its lead like a good recruit
We search for a way to fill our yearning eyes
Not a reason to live, but a reason not to die
Entrenched in a dream, there's no way to make us act
Our lives have become another tragic cul-de-sac
Like a mouse in a maze
Looking for cheese
A life of futility
Menageries cage
Just hope to survive a meaningless destiny
Each turn that we take
Only will lead to more aimlessness
Nothing will change
Until we can learn
That we must confess
We search for a way to fill our yearning eyes
Not a reason to live, but a reason not to die
Entrenched in a dream, there's no way to make us act
Our lives have become another tragic cul-de-sac
