Appearance is deceptive
So perfect in disguise
There's more than what you see


A semblance is protective
A blinder for the eyes

A place to hide and flee

Flee and you'll never see

What you're going to be
If you throw away the key


The truth from the past you can't make it last

Flee and walk away

From what you are this day
If you are afraid to stay


Beyond the shore the sea is filled up
With sentiment and strength
Here lie the thoughts imprisoned

A field of forces and laments

How can we hide here

We need to change our ways
How can we tell lies here
We turn our eyes away


From the truth
From the past

You cannot
Make it last


If you do not cease to run away from truth
You will never see the shadow
Of your dying youth


A façade is what we all possess
But on the inside it stays a mess


Superficial changes won't recall the past
Don't deny the clock is ticking

And it's racing fast

Fading tokens of our latter days

Make us think we need to change our ways

Deep, the feelings hide

They're wasted from within
And my shell will never break


Appearance is deceptive
So perfect in disguise
A place to flee and hide and run away

Lift the shadow
