I might be foolish, inane, when I said I was born to be brave, I might be witless and strange, slowly forging my cave, Self distractive and lethal in every way I behave, I could be tainted and ****** by every smile that I gave. Might be a slave to my craves, eternally dancing this wave, Might be a vicious hypocrite in every inch of my claims, I might be drowning in shame and guilt I’m failing to tame, Despising what I became hence I’m loathing my name, But there’s awakening hidden when you just take all the blame, Like a messiah who’s risen, purely cleansed by the flame, I’m more in touch and humane when only instincts remain, Today I’m squealing in vain but I’m most enlightened in pain, Hear me now and heed me well, I’ll dance on top of your grave, If you doubt me for just a second while I’m falling from grace, Watch me destroy my diffidence and watch me make it my slave, I’m more enthralled in disgrace and more enchanted displaced, I’m more enlightened in pain.

To find enlightenment in pain
I might be foolish, inane, when I said I was born to be brave, I might be witless and strange, slowly forging my cave, Self distractive and lethal in every way I behave, I could be tainted and ****** by every smile that I gave. Might be a slave to my craves, eternally dancing this wave, Might be a vicious hypocrite in every inch of my claims, I might be drowning in shame and guilt I’m failing to tame, Despising what I became hence I’m loathing my name, But there’s awakening hidden when you just take all the blame, Like a messiah who’s risen, purely cleansed by the flame, I’m more in touch and humane when only instincts remain, Today I’m squealing in vain but I’m most enlightened in pain, Hear me now and heed me well, I’ll dance on top of your grave, If you doubt me for just a second while I’m falling from grace, Watch me destroy my diffidence and watch me make it my slave, I’m more enthralled in disgrace and more enchanted displaced, I’m more enlightened in pain.
