"Under The Surface" lyrics - LACUNA COIL

[Refrain:]
Beneath the gloss there is no escape
You're looking sharp but the smile is fake
There's much more that hides behind
All your senses are compelled to lie

Solitary warm embrace
That keeps me here confined (Can't run away)
I search for comfort deep inside
And I don't want to get away (Escape from here)
I could be wrong but I don't care
I'm imprisoned deep (Alone)
Living in isolation from the world

[Pre-Chorus:]
Demise
But I feel fine

[Chorus:]
Everything feels perfect
When you're spinning lies (Deceiving yourself)
But deep under the surface
The battle comes alive (Don't want to fight)
Everything's collapsing
But you don't seem to care (Disown)
Illusions and emotions are for sale

[Post-Chorus:]
Life
There is no point

Loneliness won't let me go
And crawls beneath my skin (It's moving in)
The filtered world I'm living in
Is not as perfect as I think (Don't want to hear)
It all gets old within a week
But I just don't care (Alone)
Living in isolation from the world

[Pre-Chorus:]
Demise
And I feel fine

[Chorus:]
Everything feels perfect
When you're spinning lies (Deceiving yourself)
But deep under the surface
The battle comes alive (Don't want to fight)
Everything's collapsing
But you don't seem to care (Disown)
Illusions and emotions are for sale

[Post-Chorus:]
Life

[Refrain:]
Beneath the gloss there is no escape
You're looking sharp but the smile is fake
There's much more that hides behind
All your senses are compelled to lie

[Chorus:]
Everything feels perfect
When you're spinning lies
But deep under the surface
The battle comes alive (Don't want to fight)
Everything's collapsing
But you don't seem to care (Disown)
Illusions and emotions are for sale
Everything feels perfect
The culprit sleeps inside
But deep under the surface
Your weakness comes alive
Everything's collapsing
You never stood a chance
So keep on burying your head in the sand

[Outro:]
Life
There is no point
There's much more that hides behind
All your senses are compelled to lie
