I used to know what life was like before you

But I can only see a shade of what I used to be

Your memory may fail you

But It serves me well

And when I do exhale you

Is when I find myself

On and on we hide the truth

On and on decide to lose

On and on we lie to prove

That nothing else can save me from you

I saw the ship go down

I waited as it washed ashore

Delivered me from myself

To feel what I had lost before

Your reveries unveil you

In the truths you sell

Does it ever get better

Only time will tell

On and on we hide the truth

On and on decide to lose

On and on we lie to prove

That nothing else can save me from you

Before I write myself into final decimation

I′ll retrace this life under sober empty skies

Sober empty skies
