Escape the Reality

from We Need to Be Fixed by Those Trees

lyrics

She’s living the life of a perfect stranger
Changing who she is, she lives like a liar
Way too scared to show what her true colors are
She might win some fights, but she won’t win this war

Convincing herself she’s happy this way
She’s been mixed up for years, but it’s harder these days
The pressure’s rising, she can’t handle much more
The needs she avoided, they can’t be ignored
Not anymore

She can’t breathe
She’s running down the streets, blinded by her tears
She can’t dream
She’s praying for that needle to take away her fears
She’s falling
There’s nothing to hold on to, no one wants to hear
How she bleeds
Trying to escape the life she lives here

She’s trying to forget everything she likes
She’s burning inside, it reflects in her eyes
She’s looking for someone who will find where she hides
A savior able to see through her lies and realize

She’s not smiling, she’s not laughing
Her heart’s barely beating, there’s nothing she believes in
She’s breaking, she’s fading
She’s not brave enough to live the life she dreams of
She’s wondering what it’d be like

To be free
Free from the pressure to be someone she’s not
To be real
Doing what she wants to and not caring about
What they see
Not to care what they think, not to have second doubts
To be happy
For the first time in her life she might know what it feels like
