The Artificial Lyrics
Hand me your lies
Hand me my keys
You have to give it all up
When you realize
What you’re leaving behind
I wish I was lost
But this was an alternate destination
Watch life flash before your eyes and
hope for the best
Even in this well-lit room
Where you lay down to rest
You still cast a shadow that stabs you in the back
This all began so well
and was the longest spiral
Downward I’ve ever felt.
You would’ve been the death of me
if I stuck around much longer
These months of sickness felt like I
was sleeping six feet underground
You can’t tell the difference between what’s real and not
Find the truth or you will lose yourself forever
I know it’s not all your fault
I knew early on what I was getting myself into
Go ahead, be my guest, work on everything that closed our door
Everything I worked so hard for
You said you walked the line, but you’re the one falling short
Actions speak louder than words.
I can’t waste time anymore
When you realize
What you’re leaving behind
I wish I was lost
But this was an alternate destination
With no plot
And no path laid out
I swear I’m not lost
I’m not lost
You were offered the world and turned it down
Shed no tear, and hope to break out on your own
I Refuse to call this place home
Hand me my keys
You have to give it all up
When you realize
What you’re leaving behind
I wish I was lost
But this was an alternate destination
Watch life flash before your eyes and
hope for the best
Even in this well-lit room
Where you lay down to rest
You still cast a shadow that stabs you in the back
This all began so well
and was the longest spiral
Downward I’ve ever felt.
You would’ve been the death of me
if I stuck around much longer
These months of sickness felt like I
was sleeping six feet underground
You can’t tell the difference between what’s real and not
Find the truth or you will lose yourself forever
I know it’s not all your fault
I knew early on what I was getting myself into
Go ahead, be my guest, work on everything that closed our door
Everything I worked so hard for
You said you walked the line, but you’re the one falling short
Actions speak louder than words.
I can’t waste time anymore
When you realize
What you’re leaving behind
I wish I was lost
But this was an alternate destination
With no plot
And no path laid out
I swear I’m not lost
I’m not lost
You were offered the world and turned it down
Shed no tear, and hope to break out on your own
I Refuse to call this place home

i love this song. and i agree. the guy is putting all the effort into his relationship, but his girlfriend doesn't give a shit.
i disagree, i think i this song means something totally different imo but i cant put my finger on it.
lines like "Where you lay down to rest" and "I Refuse to call this place home"
idk,
i agree with bitstream..theres so much frustration in the song like hes letting out his anger
I agree as well. It's happened to me too, and it is frusterating, so this song captures everything with the message pretty well.
