We’re not alive if we’re pretending to live
The truth might cut the surface
But lies we’re dared to remember
Pain is temporary but if I quit now
It will live forever

Cause I don’t wanna live forever
I just don’t want you to hold me back
And I know everything will end someday
But I can’t live like that

If this is a menace what hope is left
Our life is a diamond a worthy theft
I won’t live in silence cause change is certain
I’ll die trying to show the world your true intent
But I can’t live like that

And I won’t stay in this safe place for too long
If I’m afraid I’ll move on
My fears will never surrender
Pain is temporary but if I quit now
It will live forever

Cause I don’t wanna live forever
I just don’t want you to hold me back
And I know everything will end someday
But I can’t live like that
Cause I don’t wanna be like you
Pretending everything you do is alright
And I don’t wanna be like you
Cause in the end you’re nothing more than a lie

I gave you everything
I gave you everything
But everything was never good enough
I gave you everything
I gave you everything
But everything was never good enough

Cause I don’t wanna live forever
I just don’t want you to hold me back
And I know everything will end someday
But I can’t live like that
Cause I don’t wanna live forever
I just don’t want you to hold me back
And I know everything will end someday
But I can’t live like that
Cause I don’t wanna be like you
Pretending everything you do is alright
And I don’t wanna be like you
Cause in the end you’re nothing more than a lie
