I'm just as fucked up as they say

It's an artificial nocturne
An outsider's escape for a broken heart
[Chorus]
I'm as far gone as they say
I can't fake the daytime
I found an entrance to escape into the dark
Got false lights for the sun
It's an artificial nocturne
An outsider's escape for a broken heart
