Lyrics
We all try and hide behind our face
We often try to conceal our true selves behind a façade.
We all make mistakes we can't erase
We all make mistakes in life that cannot be undone.
I've tried and tried to be just what they want
The speaker has made efforts to conform to others' expectations.
I gave my heart away to only rot
The speaker gave their heart to someone, but it only decayed or suffered.
I gave it to you
The heart was given to a specific person.
We all lie awake at night
Everyone experiences restless nights.
We all lie awake and cry
Nights where everyone lies awake and sheds tears.
We all begin to see inside our lies
We all start recognizing the truth behind our lies.
In the end the truth is no surprise
Ultimately, the truth is revealed, and it's not surprising.
Lie down, shed a tear by you side
Encouragement to lie down and express sadness alongside someone.
Thank you friends that your still alive
Expressing gratitude for friends who are still alive.
There's nothing left when you're fake in your face
Nothing meaningful remains when one is fake in their expressions.
Just remember next time to embrace
A reminder to embrace authenticity in the future.
I miss you
Expressing a feeling of missing someone.
But I don't love you any more
The speaker no longer loves the person they miss.
Take me, take my heart and bleed it more, make me feel alone
Asking to be taken, heart to be broken, and to feel loneliness.
Take my soul and burn it in celebration
Offering the soul to be burned in celebration, suggesting a desire for transformation.
My unavailable separation from the desire to smile draws tears from my heart
Expressing a separation from joy, resulting in tears.
For I know the smile I seek has not been created for me to smile
Yearning for a smile that hasn't been created for them.
