Echoes of the Augmented Mind - Filtered Life Lyrics

We're always perfect
Behind the glow of our screens
A flawless, filtered life
Built on fragile dreams
We play the game, but don't we see?
A world that's fake, not meant to be
How long can we keep up the show?
When deep inside, we're feeling low
We chase the likes, the shallow praise
Trapped in this endless maze
But it's just a role we play
Hiding the truth, we fade away (away)
We chase the likes, the shallow praise
Trapped in this endless maze
But it's just a role we play
Hiding the truth, we fade away
We play the game, but don't we see?
A world that's fake, not meant to be
How long can we keep up the show?
When deep inside, we're feeling low
In a sea of faces, where do we stand?
Lost in the image, we can't understand
The envy we breed, the lies we sell
In this digital hell we dwell
But now we see, it's all a mask
A fleeting fame, a hollow task
We post our highlights, hide our scars
Pretend we're living among the stars
But loneliness grows behind the screen
In the darkness, we're unseen
We play the game, but don't we see?
A world that's fake, not meant to be
How long can we keep up the show?
When deep inside, we're feeling low
We play the game, but now we know
The truth is buried far below
We're not real, and we can't save
Ourselves from this endless wave
No more lies, the truth sets free
It's time we face reality
We're not real, and we can't save
Ourselves from the life we crave
No more lies, it's time to break
From this illusion we all fake
