LYRICS
FOREVER CYNICAL
A pre-emptive strike
With words that sting
Echo's a love
With broken wings
Walls built high
Or trust in disguise
Turning truth
Tears in your eyes
What do you say
To someone so cruel
A broken shadow
Of whom you knew
Patience worn and paper thin
I know you know this
Consumed by doubt
Assume the worst of a life
From the side-lines
Why, always so cynical
Always so cynical
You
​
Consumed by doubt
Assume the worst of a life
From the side-lines
Why, always so cynical
Always so cynical
When the stars that shine a light
On these progressive themes
That blight your life
​
An electric love that can't overcome
The blackened cloud
That blocks out the sun
​
Comparisons to other things
That open wounds
And cut your strings
​
Tangled in all that could have been
But you could save your life
You should save your
​
Consumed by doubt
Assume the worst of a life
From the side-lines
Why, always so cynical
Always so cynical
You
Consumed by doubt
Assume the worst of a life
From the side-lines
Why, always so cynical
Always so cynical
Before you leave it all behind
Recall the love that burned so bright
Faded lights, lost to sea
Those silent battles
No one could see
Before you leave it all behind
Recall the hope we could rewind
Before you leave it all behind
Know you could save your life
You could save your
Consumed by doubt
Assume the worst of a life
From the side-lines
Why, always so cynical
Always so cynical
You
Consumed by doubt
Assume the worst of a life
From the side-lines
Why, always so cynical
Forever cynical
