Dissonant Echo

I see you in the eyes
And I see myself
Desperate for a lie
That gives me peace of mind
Wish I had better comprehension
But I'm craving for more attention
Contemplating procrastination
To the point of full alienation
We're always on the edge
We're hanging by a golden thread
We're rotten by the lies we tell ourselves
And I am about to fall apart
I feel terrified
When I hear myself
Begging for a sign
To help me clarify
Could've been a better contender
But I'm settling for a pretender
And I hope I never surrender
Let it extinguish all the splendor
We're always on the edge
We're hanging by a golden thread
We're rotten by the lies we tell ourselves
And I am about to fall apart
This dissonant love
Permeates our souls
Mysterious words
Echoing in our minds
Hope is hidden in our silence
Mysterious words echoing in our minds
