Explained Away Lyrics - Anacrusis

Donning a sweet contented mask 

Acquiring bliss, a grueling task 

Adoring a regretful past 

Wondering how long it can last 

Frequenting a cold empty void 

And fearing I am, paranoid 

Obeying this despondent way 

The crumbling hopes, the price to pay 

Contorted veil of false fulfillment 

So easily explained away... explained away

Nothing changes the future past 

Pretending to the very last 

Contorted veil of false fulfillment 

So easily explained away 

Driving onward, must gratify 

I'm posing in a satisfied lie 

Disregarding this emptiness 

And settling, now, for so much less 

Contorted veil of false fulfillment 

So easily explained away

Donning a sweet contented mask 

Acquiring bliss a grueling task 

Nothing changes the future past 

Pretending to the very last 

Contorted veil of false fulfillment 

So easily explained away... explained away... 

Explained away...
