Intro (x2) verse 1 I'm looking at a face, a pointed chin towards the sky, an arrogance It easily betrays the closest friend. No moment lost, no consequence Pre-Chorus The circle starts again, away from you Deception pulls us in, away from you Away from you, away from you An imitation, a fabrication A pretty fake, a counterfeit An empty carcass behind the artist Is there a trace of innocence? verse 2 So how do you portray the sentiment? A ruse is brought, the truth is bent And much to our dismay, they're ignorant. The more that we make up the more it fits Pre-Chorus The circle starts again, away from you Deception pulls us in, away from you Away from you, away from you An imitation, a fabrication A pretty fake, a counterfeit An empty carcass behind the artist Is there a trace of innocence? Bridge This doesn't feel right Feels like everything's further away Dead as the nightlife, hindsight, watching another mistake You never feel right, long nights Following into the day Pale as the street light, pure white Washing the color away An imitation, a fabrication A pretty fake, a counterfeit An empty carcass behind the artist Is there a trace of innocence?
