Half Truism

One is for envy
and one just for spite
The cuts in my heart
they show in your eyes
Don't make it better
The twisting knife turns all by itself
onto someone else

Your self-liberation
will leave this behind
Beyond swings and arrows,
that rain on our minds
Don't make it better
Shake it off, it never mattered anyway

If we don´t make it alive
It´s a hell of a good day to die
All our lives that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

And it´s ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend
All our lives that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

The banner you're waving
is burning in red
It's blocking the sunlight,
that shines overhead
You against the world
Diamonds and pearls, voices inside you churn
Watch the city burn

Your own liberation
will leave them behind
On the swings and arrows,
that rain on your mind
Don't make it better
Break it 'cause it never mattered, anyway

If we don´t make it alive
It´s a hell of a good day to die
All our lives that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

And it´s ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend
Our lives that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

(I won't calm down)

The banner you're waving,
is burning in red
You against the world
Diamonds and pearls
It never mattered, mattered, mattered, anyway

If we don´t make it alive
It´s a hell of a good day to die
All our lives that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

And it´s ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend
All our lives that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

Our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long
