[Verse 1]

Beautiful silence

Beautiful pain

We're only human

We're meant to dream

Lost in a life full of mistakes

We do what feels right

Then fall with no grace

Chased by the sun

Escaping flatlines

Dreams are a curse

Wake up you're alive

[Chorus]

Oh slowly fading from the misery

I've accepted who I'm supposed to be

I've accepted who I'm supposed to see

Lady in the mirror

Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older

And every time I break I get stronger

Everyday it's getting a bit colder

When I grow closer

To the devil on my shoulder

To the devil on my shoulder

[Verse 2]

Beautiful silence

Beautiful pain

Beautiful people

But we're all stained

Lost in a life

Full of mistakes

We do what feels right

Then we fall with no grace

I'mma sinner

I'mma tainted saint

I'mma savior

It's all the same

Chased by the sun

Escaping flatlines

Dreams are a curse

Wake up you're alive

[Chorus]

Oh slowly fading from the misery

I've accepted who I'm supposed to be

I've accepted who I'm supposed to see

Lady in the mirror

Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older

And every time I break I get stronger

Everyday it's getting a bit colder

When I grow closer

To the devil on my shoulder

To the devil on my shoulder

[Bridge]

We're all broken, it's fate

It's the way that we're made

All the pieces are there

They just aren't in there place

So I struggle to stand

But don't ask for a hand

My pride tells me no

You're better alone

I'm uncomfortably numb

As I stuff what I've found

And I start to shut down

Freeze in front of a crowd

It's what I don't say

I don't love I don't hate

Closing my mouth and turning my face

But it's no way to live to have nothing to give

Consuming the doubt

Not letting them in

But I'm not here to win

To survive but I'm already dead

So I picked up my head

[Chorus]

Oh slowly fading from the misery

I've accepted who I'm supposed to be

I've accepted who I'm supposed to see

Lady in the mirror

Oh everyday I'm getting a bit older

And every time I break I get stronger

Everyday it's getting a bit colder

When I grow closer

To the devil on my shoulder

To the devil on my shoulder
