I can't erase the past I can't erase today Please take it all away I can't believe there's nothing more to this senseless world Please take it all away
I can't undo the pain and regrets of the past, nor can I stop the suffering of the present. I wish everything that is causing me pain can be erased, and I am struggling to find a purpose in this pointless world.
Why do we live within these season of wither? Why does the hopelessness take control?
Why are we trapped in a period of decline and decay? Why does a feeling of despair and pessimism dominate us?
Slowly fading we lose control Slowly decaying losing all
Our life is gradually declining and wearing away, and we are losing our grip on things and our own selves.
