Dancing shadows into the glow
Lost reflections in the flow
We left and made our part
Tore the ending from the start
Words fell quiet, lights went low
Moving fast but going slow
We said goodbye without a fight
Calling distance doing right
Now it's just a brand new start

We keep saying we're okay
Like the truth just fades away
But every step feels wrong somehow
And I feel it breaking now
We rise again, or so we say
But then I can't feel what we claim
We rise again, day by day
But deep inside, it's a lie, it's a lie, it's a lie

Breakfast for dinner, your life, your life
Running circles every night
Same mistakes in different light
Calling chaos, living right
Chasing shadows into the night
Wide awake but dead inside
Every promise overspilled
Every moment half fulfilled
We dress it up to look okay

Smiles through things we never say
If this freedom's what we chose
Why does it still hurt this way?
We rise again, or so we say
But then I can't feel what we claim
We rise again, day by day
But deep inside, it's a lie, it's a lie, it's a lie
It's a lie
It's a lie

It's not ending when it goes
Every silence overflows
All the stars will arrive
Even if we don't survive
All the theory had to know
What we lose to let it show
But the truth comes crashing through
And it's not just you

We say time will make it right
But time just learns how to hide
If healing's meant to set us free
Why do I still feel empty?
We rise again, or so we say
But then I can't feel what we claim
We rise again, through the pain
But deep inside, it's a lie, it's a lie, it's a lie
It's a lie
