Home Truths

The cabin was shaking, panic starts to spread
With every face saying "This is how it ends."
I'm the still in the storm
I'm at odds with the mess we're in
I'm a calm expression
I'm wasted oxygen

I swear it's true, that every word will come back to haunt you
I swear it's true, but are you?

We lie like lovers lost in long nights
But you'd still swear that you could never know how apart we'd grown
This limelight covers me in grace I've never earned
But you could never know how apart we'd grown

So how can you sing of souls when you sold your own?
Your honesty dies when you get too comfortable
So if this is the demise then lay me beside
I'm never one to sing of lies, but this became mine
It's contrived, and barely disguised

We lie like lovers lost in long nights
But you'd still swear that you could never know how apart we'd grown
This limelight covers me in grace I've never earned
But you could never know how apart we'd grown

I swear it's true, that every word will come back to haunt you
I swear it's true, but are you?
