The Death of Me

My ego
Will be the death of me
What separates myself
Myself from everything
Looking outward and all I see
Is a reflection of my
My insecurities
Causing my actions to betray my thoughts

Confusing who I am
With what I want
It's never ending
The war inside my mind
It's never ending
The war inside my mind

It derives from that which came
Before space and time
I know there's purpose

To breaking my ignorance
To spending my days seeking love
And reflecting it
Yet I wear this crown of shame
It cuts through my skin like glass
And oh, I hope the scars remain
Like the blood on my hands

I'll be the first
To contradict the person I portray

Like the blood on my hands
Stained red from the past

I'll be the first to contradict the person I portray
Never actually committed to the things I say
If there's a piece of me I swear is true
It's that I stared into death's eyes and I couldn't help
But like the view

I'll be the first
To contradict the person I portray

I know there's purpose
To breaking my ignorance
To spending my days seeking love
And reflecting it
Yet I wear this crown of shame
It cuts through my skin like glass
And oh I hope the scars remain

I'll be the first
My ego
To contradict the person I portray
Will be the death of me
But I'm making
I'm making
Changes
