I delve into myself ceaselessly

But I rarely see

What I want to see

Embracing the future

Forgetting the past

Loves lost and misfortune

The chaos and the crass



I'm wary of you

But you're oblivious to me

I'm chained to your ego

And there isn't a key

I play with emotions

But never my own

Don't you recognize me

Try looking inwardly



But you won't see me



Such a strange situation

As I wallow in waste

That such a trivial victory

Could put a smile on your face

Using me as the scapegoat

For what you want to believe

So I'll just bow out politely

And tip my cap as I leave



Comme ci comme ca



My eyes are wide open

Yours are closed

It's time you realised

I'm a part of you



Look inwardly

Don't bleed for me

Look to yourself
