We Were the Romans - Vanilla Sky

This time seems to never change

The more I give and the less I earn

Five years since I moved into Rome

Where an empire was born and a god died nearly alone

The city lights are the only sun I know

You feel better if they tell you you’re different

You are unique but there’s something you should know

You are not enough for this city not enough for this world

If I’m not good enough just tell me who deserves to live this life alone

This life alone

This pain seems to never end

The more I love and the more it hurts

Five years to make my dreams come real

And just one second to erase 'em all

Those empty streets were the only land I knew

I felt better if they told me I was different

Was I unique was there something I should know

Was I enough for this city and enough for this world

If I’m not good enough just tell me who deserves to live this life alone

Well if it’s not enough just tell me who deserves to walk this path alone

This life alone

This pain seems to never end

The more it hurts the less I pretend

To be here to be alive still

If I can’t face this I wonder who ever will

The city lights are the only sun I know

I feel better now I know that I’m different

If I’m not good enough just tell me who deserves to live this life alone

Well if it’s not enough just tell me who deserves to walk this path alone

Well if it’s not enough
