"I Never Wanted" lyrics - AS I LAY DYING

AS I LAY DYING
"I Never Wanted"
(As I Lay Dying / Tim Lambesis)

I never wanted and I never cared before

I never wanted and I never cared before
Take it back, this is a new day
I never wanted and I never cared before
Take it back, this is

How I long to regress
To the days before I took upon myself
(For tomorrow) The obsessions of this world
(May fall) A day of innocence equating beauty
(And today) And tomorrow may fall
(Is already) And today is already gone
Tomorrow may fall
Today is already gone

Take it back, this is a new day
I never wanted, this is a new day
And I never cared before
I never wanted, [2x]
And I never cared before

I've grown tired of chasing
Convinced I was in need
And now the years I've spent
Only a slave to this
Tomorrow may fall
And today is already gone
I will no longer adore
These things that will never satisfy me

I've seen my world change
And then go back to where it came

In this vicious circle we are all brought back to life only to die. [2x]
To die

(I have seen my) In this vicious circle
(My world change) We are all
(And then go back) Brought back to life
(Back to where it came) Only to die
(But without these) In this vicious circle
(Barren obsessions) We are all
(I am simply) Brought back to life
(I am simply free) Only to die

I've seen my world change
And then go back to where it came
