lyrics

Don’t ever say I always wanted this to be a
test of being alone, you’re never on your own.
You never said you ever wanted this to be the best part of your day, you’d rather suffocate.

Oh, as the choirs start to sing, this is the sound of regret. You’ll never see the same sunrise again.
And now the quiet has set in, I know that I won’t forget we’ll never see the same sunrise again.

I never knew that I’d repeat myself again.
This is a fallacy, this is hypocrisy.
Don’t ever say that I wanted to believe in everything and though you’re all alone you’ll never right your wrongs.

Oh, as the choirs start to sing, this is the sound of regret. You’ll never see the same sunrise again.
And now the quiet has set in, I know that I won’t forget we’ll never see the same sunrise again.

There is no conversation,
no need to look me in the eye.
There is no conversation, so there’s no need.
There is no conversation.

So, I guess that this is living now. This is a fallacy, this is hypocrisy. So, I guess that this is living.
