lyrics

If the shoe fits, I can take you on this journey
A path that leads to two bridges burning
While things are changing I'm thinking
The anger I've been keeping can't be worth it

Your whole life you'll stumble and fight
That’s just the karma you'll sink in
Show me you have a heart
Show me your tears aren't just a pity party
It's not so easy
To understand
You're wasting away
Lifeless and Lingering
You're drowning yourself
With the weight of the world on shoulders
you're faking it all
To leave here with nothing to say
Taking a fall with no one to show you the way
Treat people the same way you'd like to be treated
I doubt you wanna be shot down and scared of your feelings
If you think you're so in the right, well let me lend you a flame, so when your eyes adjust you'll know you're to blame
Stop taking your chances
Hold onto the ones that are closest.
Stop living the lie you're creating.
And let go of the guilt left inside
Villainous reflection
No mirror in sight
You're looking back on your every move
Entranced by a state of muse
Become aware you're a liar and a thief
So don't blame me or the rest of the world
It's not so easy
To understand
You're wasting away
Lifeless and Lingering
you're drowning yourself
with the weight of the world on your shoulders
you're faking it all
To leave here with nothing to say
Taking a fall with no one to show you the way
You're better off dead
Keep dreaming
Peace not destruction
Stop turning our worlds into storms
I will learn to forgive
But I promise to never forget
The shackles of possession
That prevented me from leaving you
Beauty in reverie
The place that I’ve needed to be
Is more than a dream
I'm ready to live
I'm ready to live
We won't meet again.
Everything was a lie
Everything was just a lie until you left me for dead
