"It's a Wonder"
Standing alone under the hot white lights,
We're looking up at the sun in the sky,
Finding that no one cares when the day leaves us blind.
Secrets held and secrets sold,
This is no alliance I see.
But when you tell me you believe, I say me too.
Promise broken and promise kept,
You are no savior I love.
But you tell me you're sorry and I pretend it's okay.
Why does the dark red bleed?
Shangri-La is taunting on the horizon
And I can't quite reach.
Lies undiscovered and truths disbelieved,
My favorite trick is the one you can't see.
You tell me you love me and I lie to your face.
It's a wonder
We survive.
