I have faced the days of danger
Even faced the gates of hell
So why is it so difficult
When I try and face myself

I can't even look in the mirror
Fearing what I may find
Will it be me,
Or the demons I harbor inside?

Is it my soul that cries out for justice
Or the inner depth that wants to be fed
It's hard to tell in this moment of silence
As the white noise screams inside of my head

What once was wrong is now right
And I'm losing the fight
For control of my own mind
Every day I'm changing into something I don't like.
I need to face myself and confront the monsters within,
I cannot ignore them,
To ignore them is to give in and let them win

Perhaps it's not myself that I'm afraid to face
But that which I was foolish enough to create
That part of me that I don't care to see
That part of me that I can't help but hate
