All of a sudden, life enters, blasts open the door, and whacks reality in your face. You think again, and finally - finally! - it all comes tumbling down to you. You thought you had changed. But you haven't. As before, you want to be what you read in the eyes of others. Cause they look at you so expectantly. You realize with regret that they have only loved what you have given them. The real you they do not know. And how could they, you never showed it.
The second single «Bright Lies» of We the Young centers on how to live a lie you choose to buy yourself. How you creep into a role and start living a life that is not your own at all. All to meet the expectations of others. To please. To belong. To be loved. Unaware that this will distance you from your fellow human beings even more.
