Hybrid Heart

I look in the mirror
I see a million flaws in my mind
But what I just cannot see
is all the wonder
in the world outside
Everyday I live a lie to
subdue my melancholy
I only dream of life in glory
By midnight the magic dies
Another broken happy every after
Tangled up in the
strings of fate
I'm trapped inside my
wildest fantasy
Tell me why the heaven
seems farther
When I'm falling on my own
As the lights are fading
I can finally see my world
of color spin
Tell me why the ocean
feels wider
When I'm searching for the shore
I've been swimming in tides
that are raging
But if only I hold on
and close my eyes
I could fly away

I look out the window
and I see the faces pass
With no destination
And still nobody
ever wonders why
Everyday they live a lie
to hide their true emotion
They only dream in isolation
By daylight the same disguise
Another endless
masquerade beginning
Swallowed up by the
hands of time
I drown inside my wildest
fantasy
Why does the journey seem longer
When I'm running on my own
As the world is silenced
I can finally hear the
voice of mine within
Tell me why the
aching feels stronger
When I try to heal my wounds
I've been lost for too
long to remember
But if only I hold on
I could find who I am

I'm blinded by a
distant illusion
I'm chasing after empty ambition
I'm torn up by the
loss of emotion
But now I'm taking the wheel of
direction today

The higher up I fly,
the harder that I fall
The closer to the sun,
the hotter it burns
The deeper that I dive,
the better that I breathe
In my hybrid heart,
my soul comes alive
Tell me why the
future seems brighter
When the past is far behind
As the world is turning
I can finally find a
way to stand again
Tell me why the
morning feels closer
When I'm dreaming next you
The horizon is just beyond
the shadows
So I'll keep holding on until
I've found who I am
And if only I let go and
free my mind I could fly away
