Nothing to see after a blink
Within this mess of a town
Hearts so open, which begin to shrink
Nothing to see after a blink
Behind all things is nothing but shame
Hearts so open, which have begun to shrink
It’s all just fun and an out of order game
Behind all things is nothing but shame
I bit my tongue and closed my lips
It’s all just fun and an out of order game
No one cares about our friendships
I bit my tongue and closed my lips
You all tricked me once or twice
No one cares about our friendships
Maybe I shouldn’t be so nice
You all tricked me once or twice
No one sees it from my eyes
Maybe I shouldn’t be so nice
Time is the only things that lies
No one sees it from my eyes
I’m not the only one with a crown
Time is the only thing that lies
All before sundown
