‘OPAQUE’

Lyrics

All the little lies that we tell
All the little stories we make
Words are opaque
Stare into the mirrors I made
Separate the light from the shade
Time begins to fade

You turn up the heat and it’s getting colder
I carry the world on top of my shoulders
Fill in the cracks, we’re not getting older now

And now you ask me why
I hold on too tight
Turn off the light
And always making the same mistake twice
Now you ask me why
I never see the signs
Locked up in my mind
And always making the same mistake twice

Look into your eyes as they melt
Blinking as we shatter and break
Turning opaque
Tearing down the walls we have build
Fortresses around hearts of glass
Days and nights pass

You turn up the heat and it’s getting colder
I carry the world on top of my shoulders
Fill in the cracks, we’re not getting older now

And now you ask me why
I hold on too tight
Leave with the light
And always making the same mistake twice
Now you ask me why
I never see the signs
Locked up in my mind
And always making the same mistake twice
