You're a mess, you're a shell Of your former self I digress, it's what's left Of nothing grateful Now your shadow stands taller than you could ever be I am alive Defying gravity Yet you take pride You take pride in yourself But all you'll ever live by Is just a shadow of someone else That you wish you could be You always claimed to be a saint And talk about the love you spread But at the end of the day You never fail to show your true self Distress Cause you aren't the same as us Chase away what lifts you up Your heart turned from stone to dust Your world is just fantasy Keep your friends close and your enemies closer No matter how hard you struggle you're still starting over
At least I still have a hope That wants to believe So don't act like a victim when you turn the other cheek Your bleeding heart's not on your sleeve Live by what you mean Not what you fake So tell me what is it worth fighting for When everything that you live by is a lie So tell me what is it worth fighting for When everything that you live by is a lie You're living your life full of lies You're hiding behind a disguise When you realize That real lies Come from real eyes It maybe your demise Don't take pride In living a lonely life Distress Cause you aren't the same as us Chase away what lifts you up Your heart turned from stone to dust Your world is just fantasy
