Stay awake all night To see the morning come Lose myself in a crowd Amazing pictures show (?) Something back the energy (?) When a brand new day arrives It takes me back from the fear Like letting go Connecting to the darkness Numbs the feelings Emotionless Connecting to the darkness I believe The perfect lie So bitter and so sweet But nothing can disguise The pain I try to hide The perfect lie Strips away my fear But nothing can disguise The hurt I try to hide Painted night in hope In an empty silent void Lose my way in perfect lies In every cheap escape Something 'bout to thrill When a brand new love arrives Takes me back from the fear Like letting go Connecting to the darkness Numbs the feelings Emotionless Connecting to the darkness I believe The perfect lie So bitter and so sweet But nothing can disguise The pain I try to hide The perfect lie Strips away my fear But nothing can disguise The hurt I try to hide The perfect lie So bitter and so sweet But nothing can disguise The pain I try to hide
