When the sunlight starts to scorch the sky
You could find a million truths
But there is always one more lie
This has grown to be the only thing I expect
When the answers seem so crystal clear
And they all say what you want to hear
We’ve lasted through another year
But I’ll be ****** if we make it through the next

For every moment you’ve gone unrecognized
There is a deeper story, another grasp-less prize  
And the final rumor spread about our worthless lives

If there is one thing you can learn from me
I can show you what it’s like to be empty
In the moonlight we will learn to never fear the dark
And in the morning, when you awake
You’ll begin to forget every thought,
And every face
Until the only thing you are left with is the urge to fall apart
