lyrics

How long have you been gone?
It’s like I never knew
The thought behind your eyes.
For every word you said
Like how I was your one
It’s all been like a lie

So now I’ve come
To find that this is like a dream
And now you’re gone
And nothing’s ever like it seems
What is the truth
What is the lie
Don’t want to love
Don’t want to fight
Is it alright?
Can I live my life?

Couldn’t be the only one holding onto something to believe in
I’m falling deeper and deeper until I’m cut and bleeding
So now you’re leaving
And I’ve got nothing
Til I decide I
Can trust in something
What do I do?
Why can’t I see?
(Oh, Oh)
Between the real
And fantasy?
(Oh, Oh)
Am I the only one losing my sense of sanity?
Can you
Be true to me

Into sheets of nothingness
I knew I could never guess
Each step forward’s two steps back
And I’m falling
We hold hands to reminisce
The time before we never kissed
This still feels like we’re amiss
And I’m falling

So now I’ve come
To find that this is like a dream
And now you’re gone
And nothing’s ever like it seems
What is the truth
What is the lie
Don’t want to love
Don’t want to fight
Is it alright?
Can I live my life?

Couldn’t be the only one holding onto something to believe in
I’m falling deeper and deeper until I’m cut and bleeding
So now you’re leaving
And I’ve got nothing
Til I decide I
Can trust in something
What do I do?
Why can’t I see?
(Oh, Oh)
Between the real
And fantasy?
(Oh, Oh)
Am I the only one losing my sense of sanity?
Can you
Be true to me

We’re caught up, and standing in, these tangled webs we weave
At first I thought I saw, some good in you, that you'd be good to me
We spent time to spin this web, now I caught you in your lies
And I failed to see the truth, looked me deep with your two eyes

Why'd you lead me off this cliff? watched me fall into abyss…
As I drown within my thoughts, in my heart its you I miss…
man im deep beneath the surface and i'm running out of air
when i'm dead and gone i wonder - if anyone truly cares

i've had my heart in pieces, in a corner bleeding, this is a modern
thesis, and im mourning deeply
know im worth it, for sure im certain, but still you chose... to disrespect me
had it with your bullshit, and you've only held me down
i can be a king, without a queen, you don't deserve the crown

ye-ye-ye-yes, i stayed true to you, but you weren't true to me
i believed your lies, it hurt me - more than heavy artillery
de-de-deep beneath my chest, hearts pounding like i'm scaling up a mountain
now im headed for the stars, place me right next to orion

Couldn’t be the only one holding onto something to believe in
I’m falling deeper and deeper until I’m cut and bleeding
So now you’re leaving
And I’ve got nothing
Til I decide I
Can trust in something
What do I do?
Why can’t I see?
(Oh, Oh)
Between the real
And fantasy?
(Oh, Oh)
Am I the only one losing my sense of sanity?
Can you
Be true to me
