ThisIsDreampunk - Deception

By everything I feel misled
They all think it’s just in my head
They all want something else instead
They all...
Tell me now, what is it that is better for all of us?
We choose what we want to hear every day because
We have to mask everything that we feel inside
We don’t want the truth if it hurts
We want painless lies, right?
We all underestimate the power of reality
Life is vanity
Every day we’re closer to insanity
But as long as we say everything’s alright
We can wake up, and move along
Everything is fine
I know I’m in a bad place
I know I’m giving dreams a bad name
Maybe I took something beautiful and wrecked it
Used the light to wake us up and then rejected it
Look at what I’ve created
Am I solving problems or just fueling hatred?
Am I making a connection?
Or am I just spreading deception?
There’ll always be more that nobody knows
What are we all hiding behind our souls?
What is it that only we see when we’re asleep?
Permanent scars, all of them we must keep
Personally, I prefer the p.m. to this propaganda
Pay attention to the fine print
In between the pages they slander
All of the things that we support In every situation
Anything to satisfy them
Or to save their speculation
People try to alter me
Take advantage of where I’m weak and
We wait until the day that it all comes to an end
They break- so finally
I rise up from the ashes
I am born again
An alteration
Avoiding all altercation
Now we’ve reached the end
I know I’m in a bad place
I know I’m giving dreams a bad name
Maybe I took something beautiful and wrecked it
Used the light to wake us up
And then rejected it
Look at what I’ve created
Am I solving problems or just fueling hatred?
Am I making a connection?
Or am I just spreading deception?
I know I’m in a bad place
I know I’m giving dreams a bad name
Maybe I took something beautiful and wrecked it
Used the light to wake us up
And then rejected it
Look at what I’ve created
Am I solving problems or just fueling hatred?
Am I making a connection?
Or am I just spreading deception?
