Standing in the shadow of our lies To hide our imperfections Doing anything we can to hide Eyes wide open but still blind To see what really matters And insecurity won't go See me in shadows Standing by the ruins of your soul That cries for some more meaning Wondering when you have Become so cold So cold And all the pictures of your past are gone So cold, so cold Forget yourself And who you are Another life is not that far Standing by the paintings of your dreams But you have awoken And all the purples and the greens Have turned to black And the ruins of your soul Have died, no more meaning I wonder when you have Become so cold So cold And all the pictures of your past are gone So cold, so cold Forget yourself And who you are Another life is not that far Not that far
