More than just the journey through the years.
The legacy won't mean much in the silence.
This struggle just to get to the horizon.
The soul that never dreams or plans or schemes;
There's got to be something more than this waiting through the night.
If quitting is all there is, when they pull the final curtain.

What the hell would you care if I just faded away?
What the hell would you care if I just faded away?
There's got to be something more than this,
More than just this emptiness.
There's got to be something more than this
More than just reasons, or your purposes.
