Behind The Eyes

why do I always feel like I'm watching myself
from the other side of the glass
I'm surviving on impulse and instinct
this twisted charade won't last

I fought for much of my time
to kill the predicable cliche
but in my futile efforts
I've only wrought disarray

if I knew now
what I'm going to learn in time
I could save myself the effort
and a death behind the eyes

I'm no figure of liberty
no man means any more to me

ever get that sinking feeling?

if I knew now
what I'm going to learn in time
I could save myself the effort
and a death behind the eyes

there's blood on the walls
but at least your hands are dry
you might look clean
but the same doesn't go for inside
now it's a total eclipse
I'm pulling ahead
I hope you live your life knowing
that you'd be better off dead

I fought for much of my time
to kill the predicable cliche
but in my futile efforts
I've only wrought disarray

fractals spiralling all around
but at last my fragile mind has crawled through
almost unscathed
yet completely deranged

lost in a lonely constrast
survival's a must
but what's worth the pain of existence
when gold's become rust?
