Oh do you honestly think it matters?
Do you think they care?
Well despite what you think
They don't

You're alone and you know it
Search deep down
And you'll find the truth
It's all inside

Inside a place so dark
Pretending to be so light
They aren't buying it anymore
So get out of the way

You're confused
But it's plain as day
You try to make it seem like
You don't care what they say

But you do
Oh you do
More than anything
More than you

Your broken reflection
Only time will tell
If you'll even make it
Through your solemn hell

Butterfly dust and blood
Spread on your windowsill
You cry endlessly
Praying for your heart to become still

You don't know why
Why you're crying
Or why it has to be
So painful to be dying

Drop the knife
The damage is done
You've given up
Your final look at My Setting Sun
