Lyrics:
You built a house of mirrors reflecting all my fears
And I shattered every window—was any of it real?
With all the words you shattered
I learned to break the fall
You were never there for me
Just a mirror to it all
You embraced in the chaos
I held on for dear life
The spark that once ignited
Turned to shadows in the night
I should’ve known it was a fight I wasn’t ready for
You played the martyr in a holy war
Sincerity
Why’d you have to say that?
Thought I saw the truth in your eyes
The eyes that tell us lies, the lies we can’t survive
(The eyes that tell us lies, the lies we can’t survive)
The last time I let you break me
Let you reshape me
I burned the lies that you fed
With gasoline, I’m pouring misery on all the memories
Yeah, they’re better off dead
(Cry)
Do you remember?
(Cry)
Will you surrender?
Or lose yourself, leave the truth behind?
Nothing to lose if you say goodbye
Knife in my back for the very last time
I should’ve known it was a fight I wasn’t ready for
You played the martyr in a holy war
Sincerity
Why’d you have to say that?Thought I saw the truth in your eyes
Sincerity
Sealed it with a blood pact
Lost in the blink of a lie
You painted me a future, a masterpiece of lies
Each stroke a new betrayal, hidden in disguise
You wore the crown of trust, but it was made of thorns
I bled for your redemption, but now I see the scorn
Maybe it’s too late
Maybe it’s too late
Was any of it real?
I should’ve known it was a fight I wasn’t ready for
You played the martyr in a holy war
Sincerity
Why’d you have to say that?
Thought I saw the truth in your eyes
Sincerity
Sealed it with a blood pact
Lost in the blink of a lie
You were never there for me
Just a mirror to it all
You were never there for me
Just a mirror to it all
