lyrics

[Talls]

Now what's the purpose?
On a constant search below the surface
I'm living the dream
And I don't mean a certain lifestyle
That most try to achieve
The mind never sleeps
And none of us chose to be
A piece to the puzzle
I'm still puzzled by the piece that they chose for me
In this game of life, right
When I was young
I didn't have the opportunity
To choose my beliefs
Or even the name that I keep
Until we turn back into dust and placed out to sea
Just know when that days comes
I was finally happy and content with who I really was, cause
Up until this point that I'm writing this here on this beach
I spent my whole life pretending to be
Something I wasn't just to please others
Just to be good enough for someone else and their mother

[Tim Atlas]

Say goodbye to the life we were falling for
Under the sky full of lights we were chasing after
Say hello to this brand new beautiful life
It's time we go, bring us home

[Talls]

I stayed hidden with that mask on and observed
Never broke the character I created
Stay sedated, hated the inner and never fixed the cracks
On the face behind the mask and beneath that
Lies the bare naked skull attached to the spine
Still trying to get that backbone of an eel
To turn into a backbone made of steel
That confidence and courage has been missing
As our vinyl spins
It's vital that the cycle of survival is dialed in
When the arrival of the final moment begins
No denial of sin
Even though I never opened the bible and read its contents
That mirror that welcomes me back home
When I thought I was alone is becoming more clear
As the condensation evaporates
My life is now an open book and chapter 8 will elaborate

[Tim Atlas]

Say goodbye to the life we were falling for
Under the sky full of lights we were chasing after
Say hello to this brand new beautiful life
It's time we go, bring us home

[Outro}

Now that's beautiful
I'm still human though
Now that's beautiful
So welcome to my funeral
