Better on Tape - Drift Lyrics

The brightest shade in your palette's wrapped in rain
You bring your darkest clouds and bury friends beneath
The first impression is great but a front blows in a change
It hides you from the sunlight so you can steal the shade

You coat yourself in honey, don't you see
All you do attracts the flies
You flail around in anger, don't you see
When they finish off eating your disguise

Picked a pocket from a stranger, a subtle breeze in your wake
Bought a ticket to somewhere, gotta float away to escape
Busy making new friends who don't realize you're a fake
Still hounded by the habits you've been trying to break

You wrap yourself in words you never believed
Hiding yourself from honest eyes
You've trapped yourself inside now, don't you see
And the walls parade your every lie

In a tragic storm, you see the moments you missed
Feeling thin as the winds take their toll
A calm arrives and before you know why
In the end you find yourself alone
