Linear Disorder - Trapped in the Past Lyrics

We are losing ourselves forever
Into the endless haze of the past
Back then it all seems fine and
Those struggles were in vain
There is no one that could tell
If I would be happy ever again

There is a place far away back in time
It was like having another mind and eyes
But as I'm racing blindly in this life of mine
Perception changed forever, and so did I

And now I'm trapped, trapped in the past
I'm just a shell of whom I used to be
Oh, how I wish I could just start it over
It's getting darker and darker, the flame is fading

Take me back when life had that sweet taste
Before it crumbled and turned to ashes
Pursuing hopes and dreams that meant nothing
I lost my soul, now I can't feel anything

And now I'm trapped, trapped in the past
I'm just a shell of whom I used to be
Oh, how I wish I could just start it over
It's getting darker and darker, the flame is fading

The past is a monster that dwells deep inside
Just once in a while you catch a glimpse in your mind
Of those memories that you wished to burn
Of that scent that you once adored

Can't you see that I'm struggling to feel alive
Can't you see that I'm dying, get out of my mind
