I came into this world an unmarked page, but I've stained the paper with lines that I cannot erase. Discarded my identity, a fragment of what I used to be.
An iron mind in paper walls Is not a stable foundation in this ongoing storm, and now these hands of stone have eroded, collapsed again.
I see a stranger's face Staring in the mirror, Who I was, was somewhere lost along the way. Caught in an empty space, I never thought I'd be here, Each day I feel it take a part of me.
No retribution. No compromise. Selfishly self-immolating inside. Burn me alive. I've seen the other side. Burn me, set me alight
I see a stranger's face Staring in the mirror, Who I was, was somewhere lost along the way. Caught in an empty space, I never thought I'd be here, Each day I feel it take a part of me.
I can't deny this feeling I can't ignore the pain Of knowing I am human, And we all feel the fucking same. We're all born to feel this way.
And so I ask myself, Is the measure of a man, his character, his worth, contained by what his heart holds or contained within his works? My motivations have never strayed, But somewhere I think they were buried along the way.
I see a stranger's face Staring in the mirror, Who I was, was somewhere lost along the way. Caught in an empty space, I never thought I'd be here, Each day I feel it take a part of me.
