A New Beginning
Chris Motionless Upon This Dawning Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look back
It’s the same old story
You left me, you left me broken hearted
I really need a new beginning again
Now it’s time to say goodbye
Every second’s just a hole in my mind, yeah
Now this is what you get
Your heart belongs to someone else and yeah
You get that you fought, you cried, you did everything
Everything for nothing

I will take back everything that we built together
I’m here I’m leaving to a better side where I can be myself again
I saw the past through your eyes
You won’t see me again
Because I’m gone for good
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
Why did I waste my time on you
You made me believe
Now I can see I’m on my own
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
Why did I waste my time on you

You made me believe
Now I can see I’m on my own
The day I leave will be the day that you die inside
I won’t come back you bitch
I gave you everything but you were so blind to see
You were too deaf to hear
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
Why did I waste my time on you
You made me believe
Now I can see I’m on my own
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
Why did I waste my time on you
You made me believe
Now I can see I’m on my own

All your words are covered by failing lies
Look me in the eyes and tell me you really loved me
The day I leave will be the day that you die inside
The day I leave will be the day that you die inside
I’m leaving, I’m leaving

Why did I waste my time on you
You made me believe
Now I can see I’m on my own
I’m leaving, I’m leaving
Why did I waste my time on you




You made me believe
Now I can see I’m on my own
