I'm afraid to ask for solutions Because I have to admit that I have none Living in this mind of pollution Hoping this soul dries up in the sun And the pride I adopted The high road seems like it's time to collapse Living in this lie of conviction Because I want to find some purpose When you finally see pain in someone's eyes It's so easy to love them 'Cause you think they have less than you That's all I wanted to see Love came from my mind to your heart is all I want this to be You fell in love with the mask I wore I swore I couldn't carry myself anymore Every cliché ends with an apology I saw a bright future, you saw right through me Sometimes love is finding deep truth for a new tomorrow Sometimes love can just completely be fueling an ego We forfeit and rattle the truth we seem to borrow Convert what we think into only the things that we know I want to participate in a love that's real I want to put purpose to this spirit of desire Cross out the past attempts to manipulate what you feel And find the social sanctions fall off the wire We're all in terminal stages of diseases we create in our heads When we're the victims of mistakes shaped to blame the dead Come to terms with the past that made me understand You'd never settle for acceptance Just give me the truth Give me the truth Give me the truth I can't manipulate myself I can't bring myself down I can't give up on my hope That you gave me You gave me the truth
