Lies

I've read you could be what you want
They said we would live in the best world
We'll leave this earth thinking that someone will care
I've now realized we could not go on like this

I did not know
I could not breathe
I did not leave
I wouldn't know

I could not breathe
All on my own
I could not sleep
What was it for?
Always alone, no
Tears left to cry
What I was told
Was all a lie

Striving for greatness, never enough
A failure does not mean they get to laugh

I did not know
I could not breathe
I did not leave
I wouldn't know

I could not breathe
All on my own
I could not sleep
What was it for?
Always alone, no
Tears left to cry
What I was told
Was all a lie

Lies, ooh
Lies
Lies, ooh, ooh, ooh

I could not breathe (Why won't you let me go?)
All on my own (I didn't know)
I could not sleep (How could you tell me)
What was it for? (Yet another lie?)
Always alone, no
Tears left to cry
'Cause what I know
Was all a lie
