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

Calm

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
