lyrics
[Verse 1]
Somewhere in a darkness
Somewhere in a reverie
Never thought that I could be so frail
Don’t know where you started
But you ended up next to me
Never thought that I could feel so for you
[Pre-Chorus]
But you don’t know what you came here for
And I can’t see the world, it’s fallen away
And we don’t know who to blame anymore
We’re not unreasonable, just caught in a tale
[Chorus]
And I don’t want to go
I don’t want to see the end if I’d be there alone, no, no
I don’t want to be desolate forevermore, oh, no
[Hook]
Breathe lungs full of lies
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
See stars in the light
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
[Verse 2]
Our memory’s a painting
So would you ever trade it away?
Or finish it with somebody new?
I don’t want to see it changing
Everything different will be same in a way
Except never really honest and true
[Pre-Chorus]
But they won’t know how to say it aloud
And I won’t speak the words, they’re awfully strange
[Chorus]
And do they really want to know?
Would you really wanna cultivate what isn’t yo-ours? No
Do you really wanna feel it if it isn’t pure? Oh, no
[Hook]
Breathe lungs full of lies
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
See stars in the light
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
[Bridge]
Secret meanings
Treason or love?
Do you want to go?
Will you lead me?
Or do you want to be free again?
Or do you want to be desolate forevermore?
So leave me alone
Then if you ever enter heaven, you’ll be there alone
Oh, that's right
[Hook]
Breathe lungs full of lies
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
See stars in the light
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
[Outro]
Breathe lungs full of lies
You shall never speak
Mmm, liar
