Julian Vane “Beautiful Dissension”

 

(Ooh, yeah... Is it real? Tell me is it real...)

 

I’m reaching for the light, then I’m diving in the dark (Oh-oh)

Every time I breathe you in, it’s a fire, then a spark

I’m running to your arms, then I’m turning back to run

Like I’m staring at the moon while I’m waiting for the sun

Is this the truth? Is this a lie? (Tell me why)

I’m building up a heaven just to say goodbye. [High falsetto]

 

Are my eyes playing tricks? Is my heart playing games?

I see your face in shadows, I whisper through the flames.

 

I love and I don’t, I’m lost and I’m found (Found, yeah)

I’m losing my mind while I’m hitting the ground

I’m crazy, I’m sane, I’m caught in the middle

My heart is a ghost, and the truth is a riddle

Is it a memory? Or just a dream I’ve spun?

The battle in my soul has only just begun

But even in the wreckage, even in the fall

It’s so beautiful... (It’s so beautiful, baby!)

It’s the sweetest of it all.

 

I hear your voice in silence, a melody so clear

But when I reach to touch you, you simply disappear

Is it a vision? Is it real? (I can't feel...)

I’m terrified of everything I’m forced to feel.

 

I love and I don’t, I’m lost and I’m found (Ooh!)

I’m losing my mind while I’m hitting the ground (Hitting the ground)

I’m crazy, I’m sane, I’m caught in the middle

My heart is a ghost, and the truth is a riddle

Is it a memory? Or just a dream I’ve spun?

The battle in my soul has only just begun

But even in the wreckage, even in the fall

It’s so beautiful...

It’s the sweetest of it all.

 

This dissension, this divide...

There’s nowhere left for me to hide (No place to hide)

Maybe it’s my imagination, maybe it’s a sign...

[Emotional falsetto ad-libs]: Am I losing it? Am I losing it all?

 

 

I love and I don’t... (I don't know, baby)

I’m crazy... I’m not... (I’m losing my grip)

It’s so beautiful. (So beautiful...)

Yeah, it’s so beautiful.

Just my imagination... or is it you?

(Or is it you? It’s always you...)
