Tough // Perfect Creatures

Can't stop with the light still on Burn out, all the feeling's gone That wicked smile across your teeth Holds back melancholy praise In those eyes, I can see the pain of empathy Of losing your belief Tongue juggling all the words that are lining up But I swallow them back down with the ache It's in my blood it's in my love Haven't you given me enough? Black shirts distort the world I see Somewhere in deluded misery They never told me life would be They never told me life would be tough So what can we do when it feels like everything is falling? Surrounded by the people that I love Still I can't help but feel alone A ghost living in skin The warmth is spreading thin Around these perfect creatures who can't see the mess we're in Open your eyes This train derailed some time ago I lost my self-control You've agonized The pain of leaving all of this behind The pieces don't align With the sympathy in your mind It's in your blood, it's in your love But I think you've given me enough Does my pain distort the world you see? Somewhere in our deluded misery They never told us life would be No, they never tell you life will be Tough
