lyrics

Everything begins to grow from in the dark.
Everything I’ve done was never enough.
I listen with care to what my heart was telling me.
But there’s no peace.

Tell me, what is that you want from me?
I tried to be good, I tried to please.

Chorus
Wasted it seems.
Cos goodness won’t bring dreams within reach.
What is the point of me?

Every day that goes carries my will away.
Every day my faith is weakened without fail.
All of the sense I knew is dissolves in disarray.
There in the dark it grows in chaos and decay.

What is it that you want from me?
I tried to be good. I tried to please.

Chorus
Wasted it seems.
Cos goodness won’t bring dreams within reach.
What is the point of me?

Falling around me.
Darkness descends.
Seeking the answer.
Faced with the silence.

Questioning that which I held onto all along.
Questioning all I have known.

Wasted it seems.
Cos goodness won’t bring dreams within reach.
What is the point of me? The point of me. The point of me.
