pretend it's home

breathe it in

let the fear consume you

then force it out

remember that it's not true

the higher you climb

the farther you fall

but don't be ashamed

of wanting it all

cause the view from the top

is beautiful but fleeting

the world seems to stop

but looks can be deceiving

you're surrounded

but you'll always be alone

so pick a place

pretend it's home

take control

be strong in your conviction

embrace the pain

a dangerous addiction

once you make a choice

there's no turning back

trust only yourself

when you're under attack

cause the view from the top

is beautiful but fleeting

the world seems to stop

but looks can be deceiving

you're surrounded

but you'll always be alone

so pick a place

pretend it's home

i'm a secret

i'm a lie

i'm the weakness i despise

i am selfish

i am brave

i'll prove to you that i am not afraid

that i am not afraid

cause the view from the top

is beautiful but fleeting

the world seems to stop

but looks can be deceiving

you're surrounded

but you'll always be alone

so pick a place

pretend it's home

so pick a place

pretend it's home
