lyrics

Is anything ever as it seems?
I can see you in everything
You're in the clouds that swarm the blue sky
We are just strangers saying their goodbyes

If I did everything that I was meant to
Would I be less like me and be more like you?
The truth would hurt less if it wasn't different
Hanging laundry catches my eye for one second
The faces that pierce through the distortion
All the ghouls and the vampires that drain the life from us
All the hurt and the pain must follow all our lives
To prove a point we sharpen our knives

If I did everything that I was meant to
Would I be less like me and be more like you?
The truth would hurt less if it wasn't different
Hanging laundry catches my eye for one second
The faces that pierce through the distortion
All the ghouls and the vampires that drain the life from us
All the hurt and the pain must follow all our lives
To prove a point we sharpen our knives

We sharpen our knives
We sharpen our knives
We sharpen our knives
