lyrics

Karii Kariiyo - Peabody, Mass

---

It seems like Empty Pages came true,
Oh well, I guess we're all gonna die soon.
My eyes are dead but I am so good at faking it,

(I look like everyone else and it shows,
My plate of copper now turns to gold,
I've lost the one thing that's made me whole.)

I guess things happen for a reason,
What terrible terms and conditions.
Put on this mask and pretend it's okay,

(I go behind my back to call me fake,
All I want is to be happy, not to be great,
As I sink, I realize just how safe I am.)

I see a stranger through this mirror,
Why did you have to give it all up so soon?
Is it a mere coincidence

(Just how cold it feels in this room?)
