Too much
The search for life's promises
Running from what you see as ugly
Frozen in daily labor to survive
Too much
We want more
We need more
and We deserve it
Too much
The happy cheer
The sad cry
And bystanders watch as it all becomes too much

I'm coming down my high again
I've lost my soul
I've lost a friend 
Unhinged
I lie and I pretend
That it's my choice to let it in
Infatuation
Euphoric floe 
Imagination
I let life go
This must be heaven
No one must know
This moment is my private show
I am an addict
I'm what remains
Slave to my Savior 
In crystal chains
I know that later I'll feel the shame
Of a never ending cycle
Of a life that stays the same

I stay up at night
Soul searching for something alive
Looking for meaning in reflections
I see a man in disguise
I ask
Is that really You?
Is that who you're expected to be?
I seek a remedy
To mute the noise and set me free
