Appearance is deceptive   So perfect in disguise   There’s more than what you see      A semblance is protective   A blinder for the eyes   A place to hide and flee      Flee and you’ll never see   What you’re going to be   If you throw away the key      The truth from the past you can’t make it last      Flee and walk away   From what you are this day   If you are afraid to stay      Beyond the shore the sea is filled up   with sentiment and strength   Here lie the thoughts imprisoned   A field of forces and laments      How can we hide here   We need to change our ways   How can we tell lies here   We turn our eyes away      From the truth   From the past   You cannot   Make it last      If you do not cease to run away from truth   You will never see the shadow   of your dying youth      A façade is what we all possess   But on the inside it stays a mess      Superficial changes won’t recall the past   Don’t deny the clock is ticking   and it’s racing fast      Fading tokens of our latter days   Make us think we need to change our ways      Deep, the feelings hide   They’re wasted from within   And my shell will never break      Appearance is deceptive   So perfect in disguise   A place to flee and hide and run away   Lift the shadow
