"Arcadia" lyrics

This ain't no Arcadia anymore
We stumble and fall, lose it all
This ain't no Arcadia anymore
Something is off, something is wrong

Far away from everything
Where silver screens with dying dreams can't sell it anymore
A fading hope that used to glimmer
An amber light that slowly shimmered as cold, cold black coal
The distant view gives a new look to what used to be your goal

Let the river wash the ruins of what used to be our soul
Keep building it up, keep breaking it down
That's all we know
Keep building it up, keep breaking it down
That's how it goes

This ain't no Arcadia anymore
We stumble and fall, lose it all
This ain't no Arcadia anymore
Something is off, something is wrong

The ashes that remain will gather, trying to bring them back together
But it won't, it won't hold
The promised land was out of promise
Memories to long forgotten, it's rotten to the core

Let the river wash the ruins of what used to be our soul
Keep building it up, keep breaking it down
That's all we know

This ain't no Arcadia anymore
We stumble and fall, lose it all
This ain't no Arcadia anymore
Something is off, something is wrong

This ain't no Arcadia anymore
We stumble and fall, lose it all
This ain't no Arcadia anymore
Something is off, something is wrong
