Beautiful lies Cover my eyes with your hands Just pretend we're better Turn out the light There are no more surprises to come Let's be numb together
The world's so fast and nothing lasts Let's save it while we can
Cause I want to be forever Like smoke in the air Float like a feather going nowhere Lost in the silence I don't need to be free Kill me with kindness And please
Tell me beautiful lies I wish that I had the strength to let go, but I don't I'm paralyzed I see the child in your eyes and I'm stuck in the headlights
I know too well that time will tell It's easy to forget
Cause I want to be forever Like smoke in the air Float like a feather going nowhere Lost in the silence I don't need to be free Kill me with kindness And please
Oh, well, I've tried to be open But I've found it's hard when you're broken And in the heat of the moment, we're free So please, please Please
Tell me beautiful lies Cover my eyes with your hands Just pretend we're better Turn out the light There are no more surprises to come Let's be numb together
