It’s like…

I don’t wanna let you down

Dancing ‘round alluded common ground

Better off without a single clue about it

Falsifying our renown

Prying eyes beholden to impound

Such a simple sound

Such a simple sound surrounds

It’s a crisis in itself

The symptoms paralleled in every infidel

I know it well

You always sell what’s not to tell

And simply, a stagnant “truth” luring us into “sin”

As soon as we begin

I know better than that

Back-to-back, there’ll be no slack

I’ll never be ready

Cannot keep my breathing steady

As I one step, two-step, closer to you

Can’t follow through, i already knеw

Solitary basis

Crude migration through these phasеs

Cycle on and on

While struggling to play along

It’s like…

I don’t wanna let you down

Dancing ‘round alluded common ground

Better off without a single clue about it

Falsifying our renown

Prying eyes beholden to impound

Every dream i see’s a burden i cannot rid

A masquerade of willful ignorance

Performed until the closing act is done

I don’t wanna let you down

I don’t wanna ever let you down

Such a simple sound

Such a simple sound surrounds

“let me waste my life atoning for somebody else’s burdens”

Who should be responsible for traumas left inaudible?

Now, we’ve both withdrawn

Dawdled on when mending bonds

And now, they’re nearly gone

Every single fleeting glance

I can spy the eyes of latent plights

Hunting through night

Of course, the status is enforced

May i premorse what bloomed straight from the source?

Denouncing that “other side”

Turn it to me and i’ll look alive

“would you look at that round of sinners?”

Smiling, idling as no beginner

It’s better not showed nor telled

“it’s like they wanna go straight unto hell”

For this sentence that swallows all lifelines

I’d like a bit of time

I’ll never be ready

Cannot keep my breathing steady

As i one step, two-step, closer to you

Can’t follow through, i already knew

Solitary basis

Crude migration through these phases

Cycle on and on

While struggling to play along

It’s like…

I don’t wanna let you down

Dancing ‘round alluded common ground

Better off without a single clue about it

Falsifying our renown

Prying eyes beholden to impound

Every dream I see’s a burden I cannot yet rid

In the end, it’s the same

Is there gain without pain?

“it’s coming around to get you cause ain’t it true?”

As i’m bombarded by complexity

The world remains a mystery

There’s no room for ambiguity

“allah, the scenes i see are - ”

Shrouded by ubiquity

Parading false identities

And twisting tongues oh so breathlessly

“allah, the scenes i see are gone”

Allah, the scenes i see are wrong…

It’s like…

I don’t wanna let you down

Dancing ‘round alluded common ground

Better off without a single clue about it

Falsifying our renown

Prying eyes beholden to impound

Every dream I see’s a life that I cannot lead

A masquerade of willful ignorance

Performed until the closing act is done

I don’t wanna let you down

I don’t wanna ever let you down

Such a simple sound

Such a simple sound surrounds

Now, and till i’m gone

Allah all along had me wrong
