Fiction by Apollo Rising Lyrics
[Intro]
Fantasy
Is the enemy
Because if I believed in the world on the screen
The fiction would make this reality seem
So hollow and broken
I know you feel the same
[Verse 1]
Well they say
Saturdays are made for rest
Settle down and let your heart win
So why am I a nervous wreck?
I tried to let myself enjoy this
I call for myself but I never hear back
My home and my future are under attack
But you can be honest
And tell me you don't care at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Fantasies are made for us
Strap us in and let our minds melt
I wanna live a life I trust
This galaxy is so confined, well
[Chorus]
If we are real poeple with real history
Then Wolfgang and Leo
Were born just like me
So I can go out there myself
And use my voice
Make this better than fiction
[Drop]
Better than fiction
Better than fiction
Better than fiction
[Chorus]
Tearing out my soul
Head back to the ocean
Am I in control
Going through the motions
Everyday
While I slip away
And it might not be enough
[Verse 2]
I was so sure
That I closed every door
And I wouldn't make it out alive
But I'm never gonna give it up
Even with a hundred thousand people saying
This is all wrong
I don't know what you're on
This is all just some strange fiction
That you're dreaming up and getting lost in
Sometimes it opens up a vortex, sucks me in
And I'm falling to my early doom
When I think about my life too closely
Passing judgement on my every move
I wish that I could take this slowly
Well some days I feel like I've conquered the world
And others the weight of existence returns
I know I just need something
To help me see that this
Could be better than fiction
[Drop]
Better than fiction
Better than fiction
Better than fiction
[Chorus]
Tearing out my soul
Head back to the ocean
Am I in control
Going through the motions
Everyday
While I slip away
And it might not be enough
[Outro]
Well they say
Saturdays are made for rest
Settle down and let your heart win
So why am I a nervous wreck?
I tried to let myself enjoy this
I call for myself but I never hear back
My home and my future are under attack
But you can be honest
And tell me you don't care at all
Fantasy
