The End of Progression

So they're saying that the end is coming ?
I'm saying that they don't know nothing
it's been right here the whole time
Disguised as a straight line
If we already knew who to be
Time is something that we wouldn't need

One by one you will lose yourself as you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one you are fading out as you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression

Retreating to the same old places
Breeding all the same old faces
Youth is wasted on the young
Life is wasted on the living ones

If we already knew who to be
Time is something that we wouldn't need

One by one you will lose yourself as you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one you are fading out as you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression

I've been cheated, i've been broken, and it made me a better man
Something you will never say
You will end before beginning, the same as you ever were
Quietly you'll slip away

One by one you will lose yourself as you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one you are fading out as you're slowly settling
Settling for the same

You play it safe
You end progression (2x)
