Lie I Can't Deny

There's something kind of hollow about this type of hurt

It only feels as real as written-down words

Easily erased and taken off the page

But the ghost remains the same

My brain keeps on ticking, but nothing's coming on

The tips of my ears are burning, red and hot

I'm stuck in a lie

That I can't deny

I guess ink fades over time

I guess time takes what is mine

It's too much to confront

When all is said and done

I'll wait for you by the oceanfront

The weight of you is heavy on my broken chest

Took all the good and left me with the rest

To sink in my stomach like solid concrete

So much space that I can't sleep

I guess ink fades over time

I guess time takes what is mine

It's too much to confront

When all is said and done

I'll wait for you by the oceanfront

Whatever feelings may arise

Don't let them take you by surprise

There's no getting around it

Only getting through it

Whatever feelings may arise

Don't let them take you by surprise

There's no getting around it

Only getting through it

Whatever feelings may arise

Don't let them take you by surprise

There's no getting around it

Only getting through it

Whatever feelings may arise

Don't let them take you by surprise

There's no getting around it

Only getting through it

Whatever feelings may arise

Don't let them take you by surprise

There's no getting around it

Only getting through it
