Lyrics
Lies Aside
Cut me deeper now
and let the blood spill out
Take these things I hide
Expose them to the light
And I, I just want to be what I
What I'm meant to be
And I, I just want to see what I
What I'm meant to see
Burn and blind my eyes
And let this ship capsize
Put our lies aside
And make it real this time
Burn my skin again
And let me love the pain
We are nothing still
and that is everything
Shed these things I feel
Love is just a way to steal
Hope I finally sleep tonight
Distractions keep me alive
And I, I just want to be what I
What I'm meant to be
And I, I just want to see what I
What I'm meant to see
Burn and blind my eyes
And let this ship capsize
Put our lies aside
And make it real this time
Burn my skin again
And let me love the pain
We are nothing still
and that is everything
