lyrics

Can we ever let go? Be free from what we've been told? It's not the same as yesterday or the day before. Begin starting over. Forget you're getting older. It's not about you anymore, you've heard them tell you. Fake a smile but you don't know why. It's just another of your selfish lies. Can't you see what it's doing to you? Don't you know it's gonna kill you? Can't say it's not a problem sitting on rock bottom. It's not a crown, you know, it's your bed of thorns. Fake a smile but you don't know why. It's just another of your selfish lies. Can't you see what it's doing to you? Don't you know it's gonna kill you? Said you're sorry another time. Blur the line between what's yours and mine. This isn't anything you thought it would be; this isn't where you thought you would be. Fake a smile but you don't know why. It's just another of your selfish lies. Keep it up but you're going nowhere; give it up, you'll never get there.
