I had a nifty little guitar riff in drop-A tuning, and a nice little quiet section for the middle, so I added verses and choruses and all that jazz, and there it was.

VERSE
-----

I don't know,
Why you change,
It's the simple things that seem to slip away,
Ideals,
Ideas,
They always seem to change from day to day,
Internal,
External,
It doesn't matter when they're always in a spin,
Look closely,
Analyse,
Take a look at all the mess that you are in,

CHORUS
------

The mirror,
It tells me,
All the things I seem to miss,
Reflection,
Straight through me,
This kindred face warns me of this,
Rejection,
Nobody,
What if I cannot stand to face the gaze,
It hangs in the balance,
If I fall, lose it all.

VERSE
-----

A tap on,
My shoulder,
Tells me its time to go back to my seat,
I cannot,
Face working,
This daily grind has finally got me beat.
The boss she,
Walks over,
Her face is death, she looks f***ing grotesque,
I snap and,
Get even,
I throw her worthless carcass through my desk.

CHORUS
------

The voices,
They tell me,
All of the words I seem to need to hear,
Controlling,
Inside me,
My second soul tells me not to fear,
Full power,
My hour,
Has now arrived, no-one can stop me now,
My mind in the balance,
Now I fall, gain it all.

SOLO

CHORUS
------

The voices,
They tell me,
All of the words I seem to need to hear,
Controlling,
Inside me,
My second soul tells me not to fear,
Full power,
My hour,
Has now arrived, no-one can stop me now,
My mind in the balance,
Now I fall, gain it all.


VERSE
-----

This needle,
In my arm,
Feeds me the drugs I need to stay alive,
The paddles,
On my chest,
Fill up my heart with volts I need to thrive,
This bullet,
In my chest,
My fault, No-one else I have to blame for this,
The doctor,
At my face,
Leans over to give me one more breathy kiss,

CHORUS
------

The voices,
They kill me,
All of the words now seem to disappear,
No longer,
Inside me,
My second soul seems to fly in fear,
No power,
Devour,
my soul this night, no-one can save me now,
My life in the balance,
Now I die, now can fly.
