lyrics

“You think there's no other way of saving yourself, and you're quite ready to save yourself that way.... You don't give a damn what they suffer...all you care about is yourself. And after that, you don't feel the same.” In myself. Truth and lies. Wrong and right. Do I hold everything ? In yourself. Dark and light. My lover, tell me; Do you think you may hold the key? Here we stand. As the clock strikes gloriously free. Where I sold you and you sold me. You'll see, (you'll see) you know we'll all confess our secrets in the end. Not meant to carry such heavy burdens, no. Our love was a sin and a crime
how could i not betray you? It’s like we’re taking one step closer towards the grave, yet we did it the same. It’s like we’re taking one step closer towards the grave, yet we did it the same. When you find yourself in room 101 you’ll be calling my name (do it to him, do it to him). When you find yourself in room 101 you’ll be calling my name (do it to him, do it to him). Oh, come the day, we all lie the same self-serving, frightened way (I don’t care about anything else just do it to him, do it to him is what you said). Your voice echoes inside my mind, like a million needles piercing my eyes. Driving me to the brink of insanity, oh please just kill me while my mind is clean.You never listened to a word I said, you just waited for your chance to spread out your legs. You’re just a rebel from the waist below, love is something you will never know. You know we're all made of the same stuff in the end. Such standard fare can't offer much in courage, no. Our love was just empty desire. We were bound for betrayal. Why must I choose another's truth? What's the point of your love? What's the weight of your love? What's the cost of your love? What's the worth of your love? What's the need in your love? What's the want in your love? What's the thought of your love? What's the hurt in your love? What's the power in your love? What's the flaw in your love? What's the fear in your love? What's imploring your love?
What's the drive in your love? What's the knife in your love? What's the lie in your love? Is there truth in your love? What's the need in your love? What's the want in your love? What's the thought of your love? What's the hurt in your love? What's the point of your love? What's the weight of your love? What's the cost of your love? What's the worth of your love? We all know the burden of survival is compromise of all you love. We all know the real key to survive, Is how well you lie, you lie, you lie. We all know the burden of survival is compromise of all you love. We all know the real key to survive
Is how well you lie.
