Graceful, you might think my eyes would show
Upright, accordance; melting heart with acts and mind with soul
Never let darkness get in control
But though glances can reveal slight shades they can't foretell cyclones

VERSE I
I took the time to treat myself, it led to unaltered continuance
Devised my every option to create the best of all deliverance
Found ideal lanes to finally move, but every step like a treadmill rolled me back
I sank inside my growing skin and now I need to peel it off
CHORUS
I forced myself to hold on
Wanted to bear, endure and be strong
To grow
VERSE II
Took the time to treat myself, the same recurring insights came my way
Asked my friends for help but in the end I know their answers, know their traits
Approaches to eventually flourish, I believed this day to show
But I mistook my rotten state, 'cause when I am withered, then how can I grow?
CHORUS
I forced myself to hold on
Wanted to bear, endure and be strong
To grow
INTERLUDE
All these people, but I break, they can't fix me
And the more I force myself to ignore, the more it grabs me
Oh, and all these people around make me break, they do choke me
Oh, and all I'm trying to do is escape, but life drugged me in between
All these people around while I
CHORUS
Force myself to hold on
But now I must burn and wipe myself out
To glow
END
Now, you might suffocate by my smoke
And all you see is havoc
But when smoulder wears itself off
You'll see me glow

VERSE I
I travel inside my brain, am I a lunatic?
I'm trapped between your scent and your uplifting gaze
Miles, and miles around your words, cannot elude them
Clanging, lasting, what used to make me rise
BRIDGE
I wander around I still do look for excuses
To make me believe there have to be good reasons for you
To abandon my heart and lock me up in my mind
Waiting for you, though we both know that you will not return
I wander around I still do look for excuses
To make me believe there have to be good reasons for you
To abandon my heart and lock me up in my mind
Waiting for you, now I wanna know that
How come when I asked are we fine, oh you lied
CHORUS
Didn't mean to run
Didn't mean to run - this time
VERSE II
I travel inside my brain, am I a lunatic?
I'm trapped between what could have been and what my destiny might be – I haste
Miles and miles around your words
Cannot elude them
While days pass by nourishing my thoughts
BRIDGE
I wander around I still do look for excuses
To make me believe there have to be good reasons for you
To abandon my heart and lock me up in my mind
Waiting for you, though we both know that you will not return
I wander around I still do look for excuses
To make me believe there have to be good reasons for you
To abandon my heart and lock me up in my mind
Waiting for you, now I wanna know that
How come when I asked are we fine, oh you lied
CHORUS
Didn't mean to run
Didn't mean to run - this time
How come I've lost any intention to meet any new pals
'Cause all this talking now just feels like wasting time
How come my actions lost their meaning though it's you who's gone
And I'm still there, I wander around I still do look for excuses
INTERLUDE
Take me out
Of my head, this place, these days, please
Take me out
VERSE II
I travel inside my brain, am I a lunatic?
I'm trapped between what could have been
And what my destiny might be – I haste
Miles and miles around your words
Cannot elude them
Their shadows are delusive, enigmatic, irritating
Now I'm lost in my own head
BRIDGE
So how come, you don't care, if I'm fine?
Oh, you lied, you lied
END
How come I've lost any intention to meet any new pals
'Cause all this talking now just feels like wasting time
How come my actions lost their meaning though it's
You who's gone and I'm still there
I need to know, am I still there
When you're gone, am I still there
I wander around, I still do look for excuses

PART I
She said - Rest, before you go
I can't be at ease, before you come back home
Rest a while
I rest, the screen is on
Reflects who I've become
Did I fail to be the best version of myself?
Rest a while
Though we don't know where this goes
I will not rest, before he goes
We don't know where to run
But I cannot stay stagnant
When fate might be ours
Rest a while
Tell me, are these illusions
Or can we, rise up, expect truth?
Will this hell be the seed for our future?
Unknowing, stumbling upon people's words
Rest a while
You have to let me go, 'cause I cannot rest, before they go
PART II
VERSE I
You can say I am, you can think I can't
You can laugh my friend
But you cannot have me
You can make them hear
Your thoughts and think they're real
Follow all your leads, but still won't get me
'Cause I have different beliefs
And I need to be the best version of myself
VERSE II
You can take my home
Wrap my skin with bonds
Take all air out of my lungs
But still won't own me
You can make them all, worship what you are
Make them beg and crawl, but my knees
Won't ever bend to touch your floor
END
'Cause when you wait for the time
That you might think is right
To reveal for them all
This whole other side
That you bear deep inside
But are afraid to share
But if it never appears
Does it really exist?
Don't tear down the walls
That you feel safe in
But at least try sometimes
To climb above and shine

Deceptive Fantasies
07:37

VERSE I
You crave what I seem to be
You crave to be light and free
But what I know is we all crave fantasies
To know for sure and never be
Mistaken, just devotedly
Devoted to deceptive fantasies
CHORUS
And all our hopes
Will be all that is left
Will be leading us to
An illusion of ourselves
VERSE II
We crave art, we crave hearts
To feel enlightened after all
But what I know is, the answers might not ever come
The more I grow, the more it shows
Accepting is my only choice
To handle my deceptive fantasies
CHORUS
And all our hopes
Will be all that is left
Will be leading us to
An illusion of ourselves
END
Grab me, show me that life is more than all that I'm not getting
I need to feel that my illusion does mean something
More than just fooling you to hope and crave
I need to feel my fantasies
Pushed me, showed me that life is more than all that I'm not getting
I need to feel that my illusion is worth something
More than just fooling you to hope and crave
I need to know why all our hopes
