Tracing the steps that I take
Feeling mistakes that are fake
Making excuses like imaginary friends run away
To where I've already been
To where I already am
So tell me, tell me it'll work out so I'll be wrong again
I look inside, I'm surprised at what I see in my eyes
So tell me, tell me was I there when I was taught how to lie?
I thought I'd chase paradise
But I'll just settle for life
So tell me, tell me did I die when I was taught how to lie?
Don't tell me what it'll be because it's all in degrees
And by degrees what I mean is you don't see what I see
So is this falling apart or are these pieces of me?
Is this a nightmare to be or am I building a dream?
When did this come to be?
When did things pick up speed?
Time gone by living in me
Time gone by living in me
Oh oh
Don't know why (don't know why)
Don't know why (don't know why)
Don't know why I am here
All that I've forgotten
There's always something to remind me
Only I (only I)
Know that I (know that I)
Only I can be my only
I would sacrifice
I suffered twice and all that I did
Was believe
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
It's funny how life can be
The circles that surround me
Drawing a reminder of what I've done and who I've become
Sleeping my days without dreams
Waking at night without sleep
Missing the truth to lie the promises I heard I would keep
I'm lost in my paradise
The walls I've built in my life
So tell me, tell me will I die if I forget how to lie?
When did this come to be?
When did things pick up speed?
Time gone by living in me
Time gone by living in me
Oh oh
Don't know why (don't know why)
Don't know why (don't know why)
Don't know why I am here
All that I've forgotton
There's always something to remind me
Only I (only I)
Know that I (know that I)
Only I can be my only
I would sacrifice
I suffered twice and all that I did
Was believe
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
