Never knew how to pretend,
But I know I've been living a lie.
So many words I ate and buried,
Not sure if I am even alive.
All that remains in the mirror,
Is all I ever wanted to be.
This stranger that stares back at me,
Made me blind and I couldn't see.
There's so much more to me,
But I am so afraid to let it out.
Something's wrong and I can feel it,
But I'm not sure what's it all about.
And they ask me to tell my tale,
Wish I had an answer to that.
There are nothing but empty miles,
Whenever I turn and look back.
As I sit alone,
The day blurs in night again
Everyone is gone,
And I await the pain again.
Faces that weren't real,
Now make me see my own.
I think it's about time I hear,
A song that makes me feel alone.
I fell in love and it was real,
Though I wouldn't fall again.
It's isn't something I want to feel,
Too much poison in my veins.
I remember the time once in a while,
when he was more than a name.
Now all that is left is broken,
I know it wouldn't feel the same again.
How young I must've been to think,
That this world would never change.
If I had known my fate before,
I would've never let go of the chains.
They still ask me what I left behind,
But I know I'm too lost to remember.
I took everything that could remind,
And fed it to the burnt ember.
As I sit alone,
The day blurs in night again
Everyone is gone,
And I await the pain again.
Faces that weren't real,
Now make me see my own.
I think it's about time I hear,
A song that makes me feel alone
I wish I had more to offer,
But I have nothing else to give.
I know that life is beautiful,
But I have lost my will to live.
I've felt everything there's to feel,
And I've never been so empty inside.
These walls don't let me breathe,
And I am far too tired to hide.
I fall asleep wishing to never wake,
Mourning as if I have died.
But the morning never fails me,
I know truth always triumphs the lie.
I hope death isn't an end,
But I don't care about it no more.
All I want is to fall asleep,
There's nothing for me here anymore.
As I sit alone,
The day blurs in night again
Everyone is gone,
And I await the pain again.
Faces that weren't real,
Now make me see my own.
I think it's about time I hear,
A song that makes me feel alone
As I watch the night fall,
I know the birds will sing again.
