Ego
Tonight i'll hold my tongue.
I'll bite my lip until it bleeds.
I will fall within your shadow.
Now, your ego can take the lead.

but you're so beautiful, darling
it'd be a shame if you fell in love
with a fool like me
Time and space divided by all your past regrets.
     A fuel for the fire, to burn up and forget.

Your lies held tight, between your tongue and cheek.
See the reflection of yourself, before you begin to speak.

Recognize all your faults to bring potential into view.
Lives of self destruction in order to start anew.

Every moment predefined, within an awkward silence.
Trying to **** the kindness with your unexpected violence.

Override the system and watch while it breaks down.
Another body will fall with failure and hits without a sound.

No truth can reside within the honesty of a liar.
You're selling a broken soul without a committed buyer.

Fate can't be bought so cross your fingers while you sin.
You have to move quick before this Karma settles in.
Older, from 2006.
This is the time of night when all of the skeletons in your closet come out to play
The time where your sleepy eyes
Don't have the strength to resist temptation
Where your brokenness is revealed
And the demons in your head are released
The time of night when we finally say
"Tomorrow's a new day, time for some changes"
Only to fall back into the pattern of 12:43 AM again
I
need a
LOVE
that can and
will
light my dark
a
breath
of
LIGHT
a
breath
of
LIFE
