Paroles de Explained Away

Donning a sweet contented mask Acquiring bliss, a grueling task Adoring a regretful past Wondering how long it can last Frequenting a cold empty void And fearing I am, paranoid Obeying this despondent way The crumbling hopes, the price to pay Contorted veil of false fulfillment So easily explained away... explained away Nothing changes the future past Pretending to the very last Contorted veil of false fulfillment So easily explained away Driving onward, must gratify I'm posing in a satisfied lie Disregarding this emptiness And settling, now, for so much less Contorted veil of false fulfillment So easily explained away Donning a sweet contented mask Acquiring bliss a grueling task Nothing changes the future past Pretending to the very last Contorted veil of false fulfillment So easily explained away... explained away... Explained away...
