Ugly Lies

I've been walking without looking down
With my feet so high above the ground, high above the ground
Demons right beneath and all around
When I fall, I scream, I scream without a sound

I need something, something to be real
If it hurts, I know that I feel
I need something, something to be real
If it hurts, I know that I feel

I’ve been walking blind
Pull the wool right from my eyes
I want to see what's behind those ugly, ugly lies
There’s no chance to hide
From these ashes I will rise
No power left inside those ugly, ugly lies

Thought I knew the voices in my head
Now it turns out, it turns out they echoe things you said
No more shadows pulling at my spine
No more truths rewritten, rewritten into mine

I need something, something to be real
If it hurts, I know that I feel
I need something, something to be real
If it hurts, I know that I feel

I’ve been walking blind
Pull the wool right from my eyes
I want to see what's behind those ugly, ugly lies
There’s no chance to hide
From these ashes I will rise
No power left inside those ugly, ugly lies

I’ve been quiet for far too long
Held my breath just so I could belong
Silence taught me, taught me to be strong
Now the truth is burning on my tongue

I’ve been walking blind
Pull the wool right from my eyes
I want to see what's behind those ugly, ugly lies
There’s no chance to hide
From these ashes I will rise
No power left inside those ugly, ugly lies
