Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Beautiful silence, beautiful pain
We're only human, we're meant to dream
Lost in life, full of mistakes
We do what feels right, then fall with no grace
Chased by the sun, escaping flatlines
Dreams are a curse, wake up, you're alive
[Verse 2]
Oh, slowly fading from the misery, I've accepted who I'm supposed to be
I've accepted who I'm supposed to see, lady in the mirror
Oh, every day I'm gettin' a bit older, and every time I break, I get stronger
Every day it's getting a bit colder when I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
Mmm, to the devil on my shoulder
[Verse 3]
Beautiful silence, beautiful pain
Beautiful people, but we're all stained
Lost in life, full of mistakes
We do what feels right, then fall with no grace
I'm a sinner, I'm a tainted saint
I'm a savior, it's all the same
[Verse 4]
Chased by the sun, escaping flatlines
Dreams are a curse, wake up, you're alive
[Verse 5]
Oh, slowly fading from the misery, I've accepted who I'm supposed to be
I've accepted who I'm supposed to see, lady in the mirror
Oh, every day I'm gettin' a bit older, and every time I break, I get stronger
Every day it's getting a bit colder when I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
Mmm, to the devil on my shoulder
[Verse 6]
We're all broken, it's fate, it's the way that we're made
All the pieces are there, they just aren't in their place
So I struggle to stand, but don't ask for a hand
My pride tells me, "No, you're better alone"
I'm uncomfortably numb as I stuff what I've found
And I start to shut down, freeze in front of a crowd
It's what I don't say, I don't love, I don't hate
Closing my mouth and turning my face
But it's no way to live till I'm nothing to give
Consuming the doubt, not letting them in
But I'm not here to win, to survive, but I'm already dead
[Verse 7]
So I picked up my head
I picked up my head
I picked up my head
[Verse 8]
Oh, every day I'm gettin' a bit older, older, oh
Every day it's getting a bit colder, colder, oh
Every day I'm gettin' a bit older, older, oh
Every day it's getting a bit colder when I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
Oh, to the devil on my shoulder
