Last night I dreamt that the world ended
So cold, so alone
The streets to be nothing but dirt
The buildings to be left in crumbles
Walking and walking
Walking to nowhere
Breathing the only life left
A life I never deserved
With no warmth, no love
Nobody but myself
The world ended
And it forgot to take me with it
Yeah, just me
Trapped here,
While you're free.
