Every secret brought my existence,
So count the lies that this contains.
And my stare is so obvious;
You'll wither in your gaze.

Every ounce of yourself will disintegrate,
You still keep wondering, "Who"
Intrigued but more enslaved,
Remember that I am you.

Another coffee rush has you up past six,
Trying to figure out your mistakes,
But we all know it's impossible to fix,
And now I have taken your place.

Watching each step from the sidelines,
Why were you such a fool?
Count the failed attempts you tried.
But remember that I am you.

Scream out with jagged nails
Scratch back into existence,
An attempt waiting for fail.
When truth holds all resistance.

You bit down so hard your lip is bleeding,
Make-believe you'll make it through.
Everything is already leaving.
Remember that I am you.

I know you gave up years ago,
And it's my fault you're insane.
You let me take control,
And it'll never, ever change.
