Lie

I play
As if I'm fragile, get that out my head
So fake
Lies that I believe keep me in bed
No way
I will not let them kill me, not today
This prison cannot burn while I'm awake

Holding the ceiling
Keeping it safe
Fire in the rafters
Praying for waves
Smoke in my lungs, I
Can't take the weight
Till I open
My eyes

It was a lie
Fictional in my mind
Can't believe I'm surprised
I should be winning
But I'm spinning my wheels
A nightmare
Swear it was real
Clear I've been lost in a sea
Without you thinking
I'm sinking
I really need you

It's wrong
I should not let them fool me, but I cave
Not long
Till I get twisted, spiraling, no faith
Not strong
I will not let them kill me, not today
This prison cannot burn while I'm awake

Holding the ceiling
Keeping it safe
Fire in the rafters
Praying for waves
Smoke in my lungs, I
Can't take the weight
Till I open
My eyes

It was a lie
Fictional in my mind
Can't believe I'm surprised
I should be winning
But I'm spinning my wheels
A nightmare
Swear it was real
Clear I've been lost in a sea
Without you thinking
I'm sinking
I really need you

It was a lie
Fictional in my mind
Can't believe I'm surprised
I should be winning
But I'm spinning my wheels
A nightmare
Swear it was real
Clear I've been lost in a sea
Without you thinking
I'm sinking
I really need you
