Mosquito

In the darkest corner in the back of my mind
I reserved a space for the rest of mankind
I was fine on my own
And my own kind I disowned
And I know that I'm sick, yes, I know I need help
But who can I call on, and is there anyone else?
I've held back so long
So how can you tell me I'm wrong?
And this place is so helpless, and that's fine with me
As the world burns I'm somehow at ease
I used to think that I had control
But my conclusions came too fast and my conscience was slow
So now can I redeem myself, or is it too late
To turn a new leaf, or to tear out this page
In rage and contempt
Before it has even been penned?
Oh, I don't know

Why can't I just feel like you?

I am alone, but not the only one
Why's it take a tragedy for us to get along?
We all have hearts, but they don't beat the same
What's the point in living life so ashamed?

So now as I try to make a connection
To learn how to love and return affection
Can my reactions change
After living my whole life in this cage?
And I kept my emotions in check easily
Though I was insulted to be called a human being
But now I believe in more
Eradicate these feelings at the core
But I don't know

And I am trying so hard to feel like you

I am alone, but not the only one
Why's it take a tragedy for us to get along?
We all have hearts, but they don't beat the same
What's the point in living life so ashamed?
I just don't know

We are the many, we are the one
We are the knife, we are the gun
We are the love, we are the hate
We are the blessing and the mistake
