Another cycle come and gone of invasive crap chewing out the inside of my skull armor of stoicism, nagging need to atone I could let you know, but i'll leave it alone I am used to it now, just waiting it out Sometimes it takes longer, sometimes the doubt is stronger Nothing, really, that you've brought on You'd know it if i showed you Because you do it too Nagging untrustworthy thoughts that come to you You might wanna talk, if you do I will listen And tell you what's real or officious cognition Might add to my burdens, i don't care if it's hurtin' If none of it's true, then there's nothing we're learnin' I'll work it all out And get rid of this doubt Without forcing you to see the man behind the curtain I've been here so much and I know how it works It passes And acknowledging it just makes it worse Coerced into talking compromises my temperance Your fortitude, will be all that's between a rock and a remanent If it's working for you, Then you don't need to worry about it

Behind the Curtain
Another cycle come and gone of invasive crap chewing out the inside of my skull armor of stoicism, nagging need to atone I could let you know, but i'll leave it alone I am used to it now, just waiting it out Sometimes it takes longer, sometimes the doubt is stronger Nothing, really, that you've brought on You'd know it if i showed you Because you do it too Nagging untrustworthy thoughts that come to you You might wanna talk, if you do I will listen And tell you what's real or officious cognition Might add to my burdens, i don't care if it's hurtin' If none of it's true, then there's nothing we're learnin' I'll work it all out And get rid of this doubt Without forcing you to see the man behind the curtain I've been here so much and I know how it works It passes And acknowledging it just makes it worse Coerced into talking compromises my temperance Your fortitude, will be all that's between a rock and a remanent If it's working for you, Then you don't need to worry about it
