(Verse 1) Come with me deep inside my restless dreams You haunt me with your counterfeit sympathy Confronting every buried fear The anxious architecture of a fractured mind And all the tears I couldn’t leave behind I wake up — you’re still not here But somehow, somehow, I’m still here (Pre-Chorus) Was it love, or an elaborate illusion? A beautiful delusion dressed as truth? If memory can manufacture a feeling Then tell me — what was ever real about you? (Chorus) I can’t escape this heartbreak, break, break Splintering into a million pieces I can’t outrun this sadness-ness, ness, eh Can’t articulate the way you made me feel Fall, fall — I’m falling still It’s an immeasurable pain, pain, pain And I’m not even certain any of it’s real Real, real, real Is this pain real? (Verse 2) Take your space, take your sweet time Take every trophy, every title, every prize Wear your achievements like a second skin While I wait for you to decide Make up your mind — or make up mine If this was fate, or merely our design A desire we mistook for destiny You’d be mine, I’d be yours At least that’s how it used to be But in this ruthless reality Every element dissolves eventually The architecture crumbles piece by piece And after everything — I’m still here (Pre-Chorus) Was it love, or an elaborate illusion? A beautiful delusion dressed as truth? If memory can manufacture a feeling Then tell me — what was ever real about you? (Chorus) I can’t escape this heartbreak, break, break Splintering into a million pieces I can’t outrun this sadness-ness, ness, eh Can’t articulate the way you made me feel Fall, fall — I’m falling still It’s an immeasurable pain, pain, pain And I’m not even certain any of it’s real Real, real, real Is this pain real? (Bridge) So were you ever here? Or did I hallucinate? Did I romanticize the fragments Just to give my loneliness a face? Did I imagine every moment? Was I over-medicating memory? Did I overwatch “Mulholland Drive” Top down, Pacific Coast Highway Like some cinematic fantasy I might as well have been alone Since you’re not here now (Breakdown!) Whatever happened, happened And I have to live beyond the wreckage Though my heart may fucked And every part of me may break But I’ve got an unbreakable spirit An unbreakable spirit Unbreakable Unbreakable Unbreakable (Final Chorus) I can’t escape this heartbreak, break, break Splintering into a million pieces (Yes — let it break, but!) I can’t outrun this sadness-ness, ness, eh Can’t articulate the way you made me feel Fall, fall — I’m falling still It’s an immeasurable pain, pain, pain And I’m not even certain any of it’s real Real, real, real Is this pain real? (But I’m here still) Is this pain real? (I’m here still) If this is what surviving feels like Then let it hurt until it heals (Outro) Gotta get past it Though my heart and all of me may break I’ll keep what cannot be taken My unbreakable spirit My unbreakable spirit Unbreakable Unbreakable Unbreakable And if I break— I’ll break open Not break down.
