They are not real They are acting They are all pretending Nobody is looking But everybody’s watching You don’t know them You never will Your storyline is set Don’t go in for the **** Don’t try to find out It makes them angry Don’t try and meet the horizon It isn’t real Nothing is real It is for their entertainment That you were born It was all planned It was all staged I repeat. They are pretending. You’ll never be free.

I wish I could be The best thing for us But you and I know I'm just a curse When love touches me It turns to dust And hatred burns With every touch Tears turn to ash Whilst pain fights inside The soul strives to escape And you sink in lies Sorrow burrows itself Into my smiles Spreading its wings Ready to devour

Burrowing
The thought of you An uncertain utopia Shaky and tense To me makes little sense The way you look at me I come undone upon the seems Holding and gripping To keep my sanity is crippling You say you can love me from a distance But take this for instance If I said good riddance Would you see me as the menace?

MENACE
Sometimes I look up at the clouds, And I hear the music Ringing in my ears And I think It's us against the world, Yeah, It's us against the world. Sometimes I just feel that it's unfair, That God's balance beam Is just too narrow, That I can't hold on, That I'm falling, I'm falling back down to Earth, Just like a modern-day Lucifer Then you catch me, You hold on, You're gripping me tightly and your hair's in my face, And I'll never fall, 'Cause, You're my counter-weight; Yeah, It's us against the world...
