A Book Called "Never"

Seven days in and it's a let down
like a battlefield I face ahead
I am giving up I think in the long run
I am accepting inside I shall be dead
Here's the height of the heat
and I'm melting
Here's my final defeat
and I'm breaking
Lord, I've given up on what I started
I'm waving away all the departed
and writing them off forever
in a book called "Never"

Seven days in and it's all a shame
like a wasteland I am left empty now
I am giving up on this road I set out on
I kept trying but I just don't know how
Here's the height of the heat
and I'm melting
Here's my final defeat
and I'm breaking
Lord, I've given up on what I started
I'm waving away all the departed
and writing them off forever
in a book called "Never"
in a book called "Never"

Seven days in and I can't sleep
I am dreaming all the things that won't come
They're all nightmares about "maybes"
and from them I can't ever run
Here's the height of the heat
and I'm melting
Here's my final defeat
and I'm breaking
Lord, I've given up on what I started
I'm waving away all the departed
and writing them off forever
in a book called "Never"
in a book called "Never"

Seven days down and it's a war zone
my emotions are raging war
Seven days down and it's helpless
tell me what I am fighting for?
Here's the height of the heat
and I'm melting
With my final defeat
I am breaking
Finally given up on what I started
gone are all the departed
gone, gone forever
labeled in a book called "Never"
in a book called "Never"
in a book called "Never"
written off in a book called "Never"
