Truth telling through illusion, picking away at us again and again.
The deepest scars, they can't be seen, but it's always just one small thing that wakes us up.
Like the flashbulb's pop, in an atmospheric instant, we're forced to recall the big and small of who we are underneath it all.
Only then do we feel the weight of our heart and the ache that shakes us, a gasp of breath taken by each generation.
Only then do we realize we have settled for small luxuries instead of our big dreams.
Only then can we truly live our second chances, it seems... only then.
