For me, it's much more than just a song, it's a reflection of a part of my life.
I used to believe in many things that I don't really believe in now. Sometimes, it would be so much easier to keep on believing in them but it would just be a lie, a beautiful lie.

Would you rather live a beautiful lie or an awful truth? Sometimes it's not as easy as one thinks.
