Through The Looking Glass And Beyond

We're going crazy in this insane world
where everyone else is someone else's fault
someone's biggest mistake that they'd ever take
we're all wasting away to nothing

our least worries are our failures
as life dims before our very eyes
everything becoming dull and gray
who gives a d.amn about this world?

we're sick of this catastrophic place
mask painting kits in our back pockets
who says you don't deserve to love?
who says you don't deserve to live?

you do, and it always feels so true
waking up every morning
hating the reflection in that wretched mirror
seeing yourself through your own eyes

but for one moment lets step outside
watch from a distance
never turn away, and promise me

promise me you'll hold on for now
I love you, did you know that?
stay hooked on to life for me

don't bring me down with you
at the most unexpected moment
for if you go I have no chose but to follow
follow the footsteps you've made and find you

I'll cup your face in my hands
and stare into your eyes for all eternity
can you see what lies in my soul?

now step back inside yourself
don't tell me a word
do you really want to leave?
after what you just saw?
