Empires Fade Hidden Truths Lyrics

I can't remember a time where I've felt like this before
Can't seem to find the words
All I believe in is now, this moment
Everything becomes irrelevant

As time stands still I hope this can last forever
As time stands still I hope this will last forever

I've finally found my place, I finally feel at home
This is what I strive for, all that I've missed for so long
I've built this up in my head, placed it upon a pedestal
Shadow embraced, impaired my judgement
Im in love with the idea of you

The idea of you

The mask is slipping
These hidden truths rise to the surface
Longing to feel something
But now that I do, I just want it to stop

The mask is slipping
These hidden truths rise to the surface
Revealing my disposition
From here on out, I'll face the depths by myself

I thought I'd found my place, I finally felt at home This was what I strived for, all that I'd missed for so long
I built this up in my head, placed it upon a pedestal
Shadow embraced, impaired my judgement
I'm in love with the idea of you

The need to feed this unquenchable thirst
Never satisfied
This guilt has consumed me, blindly unaware of my betrayal
Since you left things have gone, from bad to worse
Destined to fail right from the start
I've only myself to blame

The air is thin
(The air is thin)
I'm unable to breathe
This weight consumes me
It pulls me under

The air is thin
(The air is thin)
I'm unable to think
This weight consumes me
My fate has chosen me

The mask is slipping
These hidden truths rise to the surface
Longing to feel something
But now that I do, I just want it to stop
