lyrics

When I read your mind
I was pulled into a state of truth
A longing for the youth I've left behind
As the days unwind
I can slip into a point of view
The mystery I never thought to find
Ooo
One haunting night
With no explanation for the ruse
No explanation for the pain inside
You can't make things right
If you run away if you refuse
Acceptance isn't putting on a smile

Ba da dum bum bum
Ba da dum bum
Ooo Ooo

It won't fade with time
But if you're lucky you'll go deaf
Cause blind you see it clear
Behind your eyes
And you can mime
But underneath your shell is left
A spectre holding hope
Inside the lie

Ba da dum bum bum
Ba da dum bum
Ooo Ooo

Where are you going?
What are you throwing away?
It's the same thing you've always wanted
Welcomed by your vices each and every day
What's the cost of living?
On the outside
Looking in

Ba da dum bum bum
Ba da dum bum
Ooo Ooo
