Introspection, recurring
Yesterday shadows today
A familiar voice is purring
Into my ears, a predator meeting it's prey
Face the wall, I'm turning
The mirror doesn't reflect my face
I'm left sitting, and staring
At something from hell that thought it could
Pin me down, restraining me from the inside
Restricting every thought, with its relentless appetite
Fabricating reasons to leave me denied
Giving in I'm just left pacified
Consciousness, return to my eyes
Stop hiding behind this feigned disguise
Remove the mask painted with lies
Illuminate the dark abyss inside
This demon was born
From a seed of hate
It nurtured from the scorn
And the sullen spite
Bones contorted
A face distorted
Losing touch on reality
The delusion leaving me
Gasping for air in a vacuum of doubt
Suffocating in my own self-made shroud
Caught in a trap waiting for it to pounce
But I'm not dead yet, there's still a way out
Consciousness, return to my eyes
Stop hiding behind this feigned disguise
Remove the mask painted with lies
Illuminate the dark abyss inside
Consciousness, return to my eyes
Stop hiding behind this feigned disguise
Remove the mask painted with lies
Illuminate the dark abyss inside
Consciousness, return to my eyes
Stop hiding behind this feigned disguise
Remove the mask painted with lies
Illuminate the dark abyss inside
Consciousness, return to my eyes
Stop hiding behind this feigned disguise
Remove the mask painted with lies
Illuminate the dark abyss inside
Consciousness return to my eyes
Consciousness return to my eyes
