lyrics

I don't say what I want
The coward in me tries to keep his distance
So why is he existing at all
I don't say what I want
'Cause often there's no time for me to listen
Be selfless or be smart
I've little care for those who keep dismissing
Their deepest contradictions
There's darkness in my heart
I'm running so they'll never catch me slipping
Till one day I go missing

Is this all make believe?
Clouds cover the sky
But we're getting by
Don't you forget to breathe 'cause
The hope in your eyes
Still holds on to life right here

Do you hold in?
Yes you're holding...

I'm made of what I long for
Nothing I take brings back real connection
My dreams become senescent
I trade and watch it fall
Try to lie my way past your rejection
Wasn't careful who I messed with

Maybe unaware
How I've been spared

Is this all make believe?
Clouds cover the sky
But we're getting by
Don't you forget to breathe 'cause
The hope in your eyes
Still holds on to life right here

I cannot hold the shell that I have borrowed
But I'm just riding out through each tomorrow
The light slips through the mask
And I will not regret the inner star I follow

I don't say what I want
But sometimes I cannot keep my distance
Maybe you're no different

Is this all make believe?
Clouds cover the sky
But we're getting by
Don't you forget to breathe 'cause
The hope in your eyes
Still holds on to life
I guess we'll wait and see
The clouds move aside
Unveiling the sky
Don't you give up on me 'cause
There's love in your eyes
Holding onto life
