The Veneer

Quantify the ways that we're okay Qualify the modes of being afraid Sterilised, alive we'll all capsize but realise it's all a lie Let it all drift away And now we're sleeping on the inside Display the image all you want Feeling only on the outside You've been denied And now we're lacking on the inside Play the image all you want We all carve a mere façade The veneer of fine will hamper our escape You'll keep close those secrets If you run that far, a semblance of okay You know who you'll betray Keeping in mind the hope that you'll find the light We all carve a mere façade The veneer of fine will hamper our escape You'll keep close those secrets If you run that far, a semblance of okay You know who you'll betray Even the light in your, all of your, all of your own And the sun, it never rises, all of your Even the light in your, all of your, all of your own And the sun it never rises
