Nothing is Real and Neither are You Lyrics

Reconstructing my face in the mirror

I don't acknowledge the eyes staring back

A disillusion of identity

Fixed to the limbo not gaining slack

My body preserved from the torment

Blessings and a curse

I've bared it

So why was I spared

From what was etched in the brimstone

Shadows creeping near

I can't lose sight

From what was lost in the ashes

Falling closer towards the fire

It's too late

If I somehow take it back

Will this pass

Now there's no tomorrow

Is it better to lose or to be you

Sever the head and the body will die

I am a broken man

I can't toil this path any longer

I yearn for devotion

To make amends

Build back the roads I've broken

Evoke the words unspoken

I long to sew up the heart I once had

A body created of ash

Is nothing in the eyes of the father

Now as the times change

The hates ages colder

Corruption exemplified

Won't go unpunished

My life is not for yours to fuck with

I want to break free of my cage

Suffocating from the air you breathe

As the sun rises and the moon sets

You are laid to rest

My soul I thought I once held

Slipped through the cracks of my fingers

Itching in this hollow shell

Dig yourselves up from the dirt

But the light will take you all from me

Falling closer towards the fire

It's too late

If I somehow take it back

Will this pass

My thoughts were destroying me

I tried not to think

But silence was the killer too

All I've learned from your mistakes

Imitation best not repeated

Building back the better world

Encapsulates

Nothing is real and neither are you
