**I stand aside sometimes And await my punishment Await my flogging The consequences of my actions I know I've been bad I've lied to myself so, I have been had... by me But that false reality, for a second, filled me with so much satisfaction I stand aside, stand out of my own way... so I can see The ability to be in denial to myself is one that I lack, that character is hardly me And so, I stand aside sometimes, turn my gaze inward, and look inside at times Correct my wrongs The rhythm somehow kind of went off key Re-write these songs These bad ideas come in crowds... in throngs These crazy things that we conjure up That flow freely **** this tap Will never stop giving When will it dry up?**
