Broken & Sober

(album: Lipstick Lies - 2012)

Drift away into the dark
To feel the love of broken arms
And all the while you think it's getting better
To take yourself for all you are
Live a life of broken hearts
And feeling so cold that it's starting to burn

Keep lying to yourself
Pretending you're anything
But who you are

It's all falling over
You're broken and sober
You're bleeding the worst of the past through your eyes
So turn all your tears into your disguise
And stitch up the wounds that show all of your lies

Hide the truth until the end
A fallen hope that's lost within
Take the chance to prove you're something better
An emptiness that fills your eyes
A one way street of compromise
Holding tighter but you're slipping away

Keep lying to yourself
Pretending you're anything
But who you are

It's all falling over
You're broken and sober
You're bleeding the worst of the past through your eyes
So turn all your tears into your disguise
And stitch up the wounds that show all of your lies

Hopeless, drowning in your ways
Reaching out for a hand to save
Fall into the arms that make you weaker
Maybe you can start again
Learn to live and not pretend
Find the peace that died within you somehow
But still you run

Keep lying to yourself
Pretending you're anything
But who you are

It's all falling over
You're broken and sober
You're bleeding the worst of the past through your eyes
So turn all your tears into your disguise
And stitch up the wounds that show all of your lies
(Maybe you can start again)
(Learn to live and not pretend)
And stitch up the wounds that show all of your lies
