Burning The Bridges To Nowhere

This is my chance to distance myself from fiction
Our synthetic life was censored, contrived,
No point of reference
This used to mean something
I used to feel something

Keep your pity I don't need it
Wish I could blame this all on you

Sometimes I look around
And can't accept this is it now
It might've never been real
But at least I got to pretend for a while

[Chorus]
My life has become stranger than fiction
The darkness comes and goes
But it'll never take me

Misread the signs
The road to our fall is paved in lies
I watched my heaven turn to ash
As those I trusted looked away

Now you're a ghost to me
A delusional lie
A fantasy

[Chorus]
My life has become stranger than fiction
The darkness comes and goes
But it'll never take me

The infection
Has poisoned our focus
For too long
In search of anything
That we can know is real
There's nowhere to run this time

I need to know you see this
Tell me there's beauty but I can't feel it now
Someday today
Will fade into the darkest corners of my memory

If I could go back
I'd still grit my teeth
And just go through with this

I need to know you see this
Tell me there's beauty but I can't feel it
I can't accept that this is it now
The darkness comes and goes
But it'll never take me
