[Verse 1]
When you hold it close, it slips away
And what you guard the most, gets ripped the same
When I say I want to wait another day
It’s really 'cause I can’t decide
If we’re better off to be lost so we don’t ever realize

[Chorus]
You’re on your way up but you feel it and you turn away
Go down just try to get you up but you wanna wait
Some things we didn’t want to say, stuck in between the lines
Free falling now 'cause we’re hooked on synthetic light
An iridescent lie

[Verse 2]
Watch it drift it away
Oversaturate
But we’re lost in gray
When I say I don’t feel the rush of light
It’s really
Cause I can’t define
If we’re better off to be numb so we don’t have to feel alive

[Chorus]
You’re on your way up but you feel it and you turn away
Go down just try to get you up but you wanna wait
Some things we didn’t want to say, stuck in between the lines
Free falling now 'cause we’re hooked on synthetic light
An iridescent lie
[Bridge]
An iridescent lie
An iridescent lie
An iridescent lie

[Chorus]
You’re on your way up but you feel it and you turn away
Go down just try to get you up but you wanna wait
Some things we didn’t want to say, stuck in between the lines
Free falling now 'cause we’re hooked on synthetic light
An iridescent lie
An iridescent lie
