**(Verse 1)**
Stuck in a corner of my mind, I’m a puppet on a string,
Creating my own chaos, by playing hide and seek.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the monster in disguise?
With a self shattered from the whole, and a thousand alibis.
I’m a fuckin mess of contradictions, living life in black and white,
One moment I'm gazing with stars in my eyes, , then the next, I’m bitching and im ready to fight.
Crouched in corners of my thoughts, whispers call my name,
Am I always the one to blame, or just a pawn in this game?
**(Chorus)**
I see my true colors and feel them bleed before they fade,
Try as hard as I might though, see through my facade.
Awareness cuts deep, but I stay silent so you don't flee
A prisoner of these damn emotions, searching for some peace.
**(Verse 2)**
Sure on the outside I've got pride, but inside, I’m a mess,
Sometimes I can't believe stand my own reflection, inside its nothing but distress.
Twisted flames flicker, fueling my despair,
Chasing validation when I shouldn't even care.
I laugh to hide the anguish, I smile to mask the fear,
But every fucking word I say just pulls me further near.
Shadows creep and crawl, whispering my flaws,
In this horror show that is my I’m the one with no applause.
**(Chorus)**
I see my true colors and feel them bleed before they fade,
Try as hard as I might though, see through my facade.
Awareness cuts deep, but I stay silent so you don't flee
A prisoner of these damn emotions, searching for some peace.
**(Bridge)**
Breaking down the walls, but feeling is what I find,
Pieces of my sanity scattered through my mind.
Trapped in this loop, I’m a ghost of my design,
Knowing who I am, stull crossing over lines.
**(Outro)**
So here I stand, in a pile of despair,
A paper rewritten over and over, but nothing’s ever there.
Awareness lingers, like a chill in the air,
I’m the king of my chaos, reigning in this nightmare.
