Plastic Heart (Collab.)

Why did I come back to this place
That I don't know?
It takes me in, and all of a sudden
I feel my motion slow.
Take the bow, and make sure
That I can still feel,
Because I don't know what happened
And why this is still my home.

Maybe it was to forget the way I feel,
but how can I forget a pain I never felt?
Stumbling through the days,
searching for something real.
But where can I find reality,
when truth is clouded by lies?
Shrouded with fallacy,
filled with melancholy goodbyes.

Tell me, how can I do that
When in reality
There is nothing real anymore?
I can't help that even a person's body
Is fake now, but in the end
It doesn't really matter what we say or do
Because the fallacy of knowing is really
Just a pseudonym for
Speaking without thinking about the words spoken,
No matter the outcome or the heartbreak.

I've just about given up on the truth,
because everything I knew, everything I wanted to know,
it was all within you.
But you're gone now,
never were there for me,
always let me fall down.
I'm tired of hearing your excuses,
so trust me in a world that's dishonest,
you never made me think that loving you was worth it.

You were the light that kept me awake,
You were the one thing I could trust,
And just like that, you left.
You killed me from the inside out,
And now I just can't help but wonder
If it was my fault or not.
I don't even want to know the answer,
Because, sealed with a kiss,
You and I both know it will be a lie.

Darling, your words are poison,
just like the promise on your lips,
and so with this,
not another compromise,
or an empty promise,
I say fare thee well,
and seal it with a kiss.
