Mirrored image, hollow heart Reflections of the time I’ve lost As reality fades in a clouded haze I won’t hold my breath another day You’re amazed by the role I play But you don’t know there’s a world to gain You’re amazed by the role I play But you don’t know there’s a world to gain (World to gain) “Who are you? I haven’t seen you around. Just keep it simple so we don’t sniff you out.” Calling out from the pews, “Everybody can tell” I hate this struggle, finding sense of self You reach out your hand I try to take it But I can’t keep stumbling back into this life you’ve drawn for me Through silence you beckon me down As apathy fills your gaze Each sighed breath revealing more than the last You’re disgusted by change You’re amazed by the role I play But you don’t know there’s a world to gain

Shaving skin off to reveal myself Loathing a mirror, my personal hell My life’s not mine when I’m the man I’m the man that you want me to be Spend all night shoving fingers into my sides Born to hate this skin, these hips aren’t mine I’ve grown tired of saying in a different life There’s got be a better way than Shaving skin off to reveal myself Loathing a mirror, my personal hell My life’s not mine when I’m the man I’m the man that you want me to be I wish I could show you All the things I hide I wish I could make you proud Just one more time

Can’t go back to when you left me stranded here You lost focus but this picture, it has never been so clear I’m just the subject of your pity with words you don’t understand You think you’ll fix me, but you won’t listen to what you don’t want to hear Every day you search for patterns in the words I used to say I’ll find the key, turn the locks on every door until they break Is it only safe if I take it to my grave? There’s no ghost that haunts this place, I swear to god it’s only me I wish you’d look inside but I’m not sure what you’d find Clear the dust from your mind, you don’t believe me but you have to try Scratch and claw at the surface And leave my skin in disarray Every day you search for patterns in the words I used to say And I’ll find the key, turn the locks on every door until they break Is it only safe if I take it to my grave? There’s no ghost that haunts this place, I swear to god it’s only me

True Colors 03:13
Keep talking in circles I know just where this ends Keep spinning around and around and Keep phoning it in You’ve nailed it down man You copy paste and print You parrot these words so much I thought you knew what they meant You’re stuck in free fall And I don’t want to see where you land Because I’ve read this story before And I know I’ll hear it again Just pack up and leave (take everything) When your colors bleed (bleed onto me) Keep talking in circles I know just where this ends Keep spinning around and around and Keep phoning it in It hits hard, it hits home When everything that I’ve known Of your words, of your bonds Is lost when your true colors show
