Andeo - Why lyrics

[Verse 1] We're disenchanted but alive, finally de-oxytocinized Barely made it out of the sticky web of burning girls and guys After countless tries to paint the truth with stubborn lies Our skin and bones have grown to show us what we wish to hide When all alone and only lows are left inside the highs Sweetness left uncovered means we're haunted by a swarm of flies When they are all we know and they won't let us go, we realize That in the end the love was spent on feeding parasites But justifications are lowered so epiphanies arise: Everyone is losing when we make our flesh the prize Drain us over drinks and dinner while compromise On innocence and trade it in to be abused and traumatized Do you recognize hyenas in disguise That hang around the body till the light inside subsides? The wish is 'plenty of fish' so it comes as no surprise That we're feeling worthless, so we sing of diamonds in the skies [Hook] You can't save yourself, let alone someone else [Verse 2] So in the name of taking it higher, I'm tired Of the dreams that we have constantly retired, tired Of the pull of rusted hidden wires I'm so tired Of being trapped inside the smoke and fire, tired So in the name of taking it higher, I'm tired Of the dreams that we have constantly retired, tired Of the pull of rusted hidden wires I'm so tired Of being trapped inside the smoke and fire, tired Weak illusions say it's stronger not to cry I insist until we mend we don't pretend that we're alive So we take a deeper breath into the hurt we hold inside And bless the rain that came to wash the poison out these eyes If we could find a way into the feeling that we're missing We would get to see our loneliness as home instead of prison We'd never have to fake a smile and keep our sorrows hidden We'd grieve until we feel that our mistakes have been forgiven [Hook] You can't save yourself, let alone someone else
