Release me from this world, release me from my head Guilt is the anchor, shame is the chain
The conduit of my own destruction The masterpiece of my life's failures The sum of all my broken parts The perfect model of humanity
Grasp my jaw and unhinge this brace that keeps the truth locked away!Love is hidden in me somewhere.
And I hear footsteps, outside in the rain, are they yours, returning? Or my mind...my aging mind?
I open the door, you are not there, a silhouette of someone I once thought I knew standing in your place, you look like the one i know but what's in you has changed, but aren't we all just the same? A constant cycle of disdain, a life of fortune and pain? Are any of us who we started as?
