I'm a surrogate I'm archetypal and itinerant I'm your excuse to long For a superior I will undertake I will overcome
Imperfection you will find Look close enough Tear off the mask I need This endeavor is not mine You subject me to the daggers you conceive I'm stronger than I was before Thus you reinforce these walls I can't fight you anymore Threatened by the open door All the chances I ignore I can't stand still anymore
The day is done Nothing left to say Resting head in hands Wishing I had known my place To take a stand The errand of a fool I'm not to reprimand I'm here to help you through
Is nothing like it seems? Living in this sequence, a dream Is nothing like it seems? Gather broken shards of self esteem
Burning bridges as I cower beneath trying to salvage the debris my devotion tied around your waist lest you fall no one seems to sense the strain no one seems to know...
Burning bridges as I cower beneath trying to salvage the debris my devotion tied around your waist lest you fall no one seems to sense the strain no one seems to know...
I don't begin to proclaim that I know I can't continue down this road
dweling on what has come to pass no force alive will bring it back I would know I can feel the pressure getting steeper with every life lost you hope that I won't see the light of day in time to come with no conviction founded just judgement contorted based on lust give me strenght! your assumption brings to a conclusion of no consequence and I refuse to play into your hands for your appeal
Inadequate, Inadequate I know... I know... I know I know... I've hoped... I've hopep you'll see me
