In the mountain of lies
You've buried yourself into
I'm trying to scrape you out
You're choking under the weight
But this type of death is addictive

Diving in your fantasy
You don't know the real world
All you see is a coup of lies
You believe real
And have no idea
How badly I wanna clap you out of it

You can't see
the extended hand up
Guiding towards light
All you find is
Looking down
At the hold pulling you deep

Yes,dark is addictive
So are the fantasies
But they can't question
The reality

Don't make me shovel
The mountain piece by piece
Both of us know
That is not gonna save you

All we can do
As an option so better
Without arguments
And words so bitter

You gather some courage
I gather some trust
Let's put together all the kindness and love
Let all acts and facade take leave

I'll listen
You tell me the truth
And let each of us put a hand out
To make a less bitter weave
