lyrics

Wasted on an intoxication of abandonment
Without any indication to such a sentiment
I can barely see the bare bones of this life
Like a black stencil drawing in a charcoal sky

Nobody let you down, you did that on your own
(Refused to ever call this place your home)
One day you might see you are your only enemy
(You are your only enemy)

Broken child, the truth hurts it even scars
Stop living in your fantasy; get your head out of the stars

Since my existence until now I kept trying to figure it out
The revelation of relationship
Coursing through my veins, tied to this
I stayed silent, did my best to avoid violence
I couldn't breathe while it kept light within a little cage
Trapped; violet, to match the eyes behind those eyelids

Alone, you can't forget the pain
Stays with you; forever remains
The deep scars that you made with your own hands
Look you back in the eyes every single day

Broken child, the truth hurts it even scars
Stop living in your fantasy; get your head out of the stars
All this time I was simply mirror, I have no reason to fear you
(Fear the fact I don't need you) Can you see a little clearer?

And even if all your twisted recollections were portrayals of the truth
Don't you think you would've acted different so I didn't feel the same about you?

There's no one to blame but the face that looks back at you through my eyes
Time to repent, time for forgiveness; time to apologise
The truth hurts, it even scars; stop living in your fantasy
Wake up to yourself and get your head out of the stars

Broken child, the truth hurts it even scars
Stop living in your fantasy; get your head out of the stars
All this time I was simply mirror, I have no reason to fear you
(Fear the fact I don't need you) Can you see a little clearer?
