Take heed fellow traveler... For inside the mind of every man There is a saboteur Wreaking havoc in your head Filling you with dread This saboteur is silent Only you can hear its voice Pounding in your senses With every single choice Do not lock yourself away With a scheming saboteur Or place yourself within its path Or attempt to cure it of its wrath You may think to follow it a while That selfish saboteur A word of caution: With every mile, room, and tile The saboteur holds your very soul on trial While you suffer from the stress Of trying to be your best The saboteur is the one who stirs Giving you no rest However... If you still struggle to seek it out Or make this picture clearer To learn the face of a saboteur You need only find a mirror

The Mirror
Take heed fellow traveler... For inside the mind of every man There is a saboteur Wreaking havoc in your head Filling you with dread This saboteur is silent Only you can hear its voice Pounding in your senses With every single choice Do not lock yourself away With a scheming saboteur Or place yourself within its path Or attempt to cure it of its wrath You may think to follow it a while That selfish saboteur A word of caution: With every mile, room, and tile The saboteur holds your very soul on trial While you suffer from the stress Of trying to be your best The saboteur is the one who stirs Giving you no rest However... If you still struggle to seek it out Or make this picture clearer To learn the face of a saboteur You need only find a mirror
