Turned aside to take in a new day
Love confused by love forgotten
When you wish you were only dreaming
When a dream is beauty turned rotten
Brace yourself for the enemy
Realize he's someone who knows me
A man who waves a gentle hand
And tried to hold you far too closely
Shiver to feel that presence
A snapshot of that first glance
Not the man in your reflection
But the ghost behind the glass
Held stiff by the rising sky
Dressed down by his counterpart
Staring through the room from outside
Fingers glide across your heart
His expression betrays his disguise
Twisted from desperate hours of exposure
So unnerved and terrified
A scream trapped and paralyzed
Wells up now and halts impatient
Quiet pressure pauses your breathing
Devils in his skin a discarded puppet
With one wish at long last to end his crawl
Can he reach so far inside you
Enough to steal your tiny heartbeat
Wish i felt the same as you do
Find the dawn behind the doubting
One more truth won't change your feeling
We hold our truth behind our teeth
Who'll embrace you every morning
Slow death or a day without the dream
Wrapped around so many times now
Hard enough to pull back every scream
Wish i felt the same as you do
Kill the doubt and face the dawning
One more truth won't change your feeling
We hold our truth behind our teeth
Who'll embrace you every morning
Slow death or a day without the dream
One more truth won't change your feeling
We hold our truths behind our teeth
Who'll embrace you every morning
A slow death or a day without that dream
