Inner Mayhem

There's a distance in your eyes // everybody's got a price, you've got yours // and so you sold your soul, you gave it all // now you wander on your own // too paranoid to trust someone // you define yourself an escapee from destiny // a failure - daddy says, daddy says, daddy says // a failure - mommy's mad, mommy's mad, mommy's mad // in this fantasy I'm more than I could ever be // I am my fantasy's crown // that's why we all die alone // in this fantasy so undeniably // I am the head of this town // that's why we all die alone // through the glass you see the world // we're inevitably hurt by the ones we love // so scare them off while they're alive // seeking comfort from the dead // in a grave yard, find some rest // here you sit alone till the break of dawn comes marching on // a failure - daddy says, daddy says, daddy says // a failure - mommy's mad, mommy's mad, mommy's mad // look into a mirror, what do you see // cold eyes, no reflection staring back at me // a tortured soul with nowhere to go // that lost it all // and still doesn't know
