The air that you breathe it must be poisoned
And youre dressed up in your best disguise
And I dont want to hear what you have to say
Its there in your eyes when you look away
These beautiful words are turning into lies
How can you say that to me
The light that still shines is just an illusion
Its just a memory from a burned out star
Its promise has come from so far away
Its fighting through sadness and years of decay
And its a wonder it ever made it this far
After all of those secrets you let me believe
Theres no rose petal air, theres just thorns when I breathe
Oh now how can you say that
Its not this silence that screams in my mind
Each day I feel like Im falling behind
Living in shadows, still getting burned
When will I ever learn
After all those secrets you let me believe
Theres no rose petal air, theres just thorns when I breathe
How can you say that to me
