Mercury Crossing - Honesty Fell

 

You can dress me up in bracelets and beads
and I can focus on the want and not the need,
but we both know that won't change a thing.
You can't hide the truth when it's naked and screaming.

Don't you see what's happening?
Don't you see how it's all disintegrating?
I'll tell you if we don't do something right now,
we won't have to ‘cause time will finish it itself.

Chorus: This is not a plea.
            This is not a dream.
            I’m losing my mind,
            ‘cause I can’t live the lie.

            You say it looks like rain.
            It’s just that honesty fell.
            And I wish sometimes
            I had someone to tell.

And now this slow motion whirlwind comes back
before we could remember how to react.
As chaos ensues, squeezing the glass
‘till the sand bursts and time spills from the hour glass.

Isn’t it interesting that the last thing we thought,
was exactly what happened in the end?
Isn’t it interesting we knew what would happen,
but wouldn’t believe ourselves for a second?

~Chorus~

I know I’m not making sense probably because
I can’t tell if things are speeding up or slowing down.
The world sounds fast, but my motions feel slow
and I can’t quite tell if I’m sick or well.

~Chorus~

Bridge: Why do we lie, why do we lie all the time?
            To each other, and to ourselves…
            Is there nothing left worth fight for?
