lyrics

Turn off the lights
Sit with my thoughts
Being alone is the last thing that I’d fear

Put up a wall
Hope for a call
No one can hear you if you’re silently feeling

It’s a double edged, double edged sword
It’s a lovely facade but you’re still feeling ignored
It’s a double edged, double edged sword
Oh, if they perceive the real you will you be a bore?

The dark is blissful
The unknown’s artificial
The TV spoon fed me a facade

Life’s a movie
Ain’t it pretty?
When you’re living superficially

it’s a double edged, double edged sword
it’s a lovely facade but you’re still feeling ignored
It’s a double edged, double edged sword
Oh, if they perceive the real you will you be a bore?

Wear a facade like a gown I can barely fit into
Breathe as if you’re being observed with every single move
If being vulnerable makes you feel weak, why don’t you have the guts to do it?
Why don’t you have the guts?
Why don’t you have the guts?

It’s a double edged, double edged sword
It’s a lovely facade but you’re still feeling ignored
It’s a double edged, double edged sword
Oh, if they perceive the real you will you be a bore?
