Witness

Expose me for all that I am The man behind the masquerade, I am my own false witness Fact resides solely in the depths of my mind... and will I ever really let it come to surface? You only see what I want you to see And you believe all that you're told Serenity is a beautiful hoax a liar I have the whole world convinced of my contentment No truth in this, I've lost count of all the times I made it home alive and wished I hadn't Expose me for all that I am The man behind the masquerade, I am my own false witness I'm left to conquer the mountains in my mind, and I am my maker Life is what's killing me I hate the fact that I'm just fine Forever seeking anything to take responsibility Life is what's killing me (life is what's killing me) I hate the fact that I'm alive Forever searching for my scapegoat because I refuse to face reality At least I can say I tried to cherish every single day when I woke up and didn't want to die I'd work my hands down to the bone trying to stay suspended in those specific seconds But I know I'd just be counting down the minutes until I'm miserable again --- Witness - Counterparts
