I've been so damn scared to look in a mirror unprepared
incase I catch the wrong reflection of how I feel,
like the time you almost convinced me it was real.
I have disappeared enough
to know that my outline is getting rough
some pieces of me never reappear
but some things are best left behind, my dear.
but are we not just lonely atoms...
mother nature's cruel sarcasm...
memory with muscle spasms...
a shot into the darkest chasm...
the pictures on the telephone pole
don't do justice to my black soul
is that what you really think of me?
or is that just what you tell your friends you see?
I've been staring in your eyes,
pretending I was hypnotized,
when really I've been planning my revenge.
you won't have time to blink when I descend.
but are we not just lonely atoms...
mother nature's cruel sarcasm...
memory with muscle spasms...
a shot into the darkest chasm...
