Half-truism Lyrics

One is for envy And one just for spite The cuts in my heart They show in your eyes
Don’t make it better The twisting knife Turns all by itself On to someone else
Your self-liberation Will leave this behind Beyond slings and arrows That rain on our minds You’ll make it better, shake it off It never mattered anyway
If we don’t make it alive Well, it’s a hell of a good day to die All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long
And it’s ashes to ashes again Should we even try to pretend? All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long
The banner you’re waving Is burning and red It’s blocking the sunlight That shines overhead
You against the world Diamonds and pearls Voices inside you churn Watch the city burn
Your own liberation Will leave them behind All the slings and arrows That rain on your mind Don’t make it better, break it 'cause It never mattered anyway
If we don’t make it alive Well, it’s a hell of a good day to die All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long
And it's ashes to ashes again Should we even try to pretend? All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long
I won't come down The banner you’re waving Is burning and red You against the world Diamonds and pearls It never mattered, mattered, mattered anyway
If we don’t make it alive Well, it’s a hell of a good day to die All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long
And it's ashes to ashes again Should we even try to pretend? All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long All our light that shines strong Only lasts for so long
