lyrics

I’ll take my shirt off,
And look in the mirror,
Disgusted at what I might see.

And I’ll take a picture,
send it to you later
The monster staring back at me.

And I’ll starve myself hollow
So you see my muscles,
And I can feel more like a man.

It feels I exist,
Within only reflections,
Confused by my left and right hand.

I’ll see you again in the old guard.
I’ll see you again.

Poison was swimming,
Up through my bloodstream,
Effecting my decisions and thoughts.

That’s not an excuse,
Because I still blame myself,
Despite my intentions I’m caught.

I’m Lamenting tragedies,
And missed opportunities,
Wish I could convince you to stay.

I want to notice my successes,
And not just my grievances,
And when things don’t go my way,

I’ll see you again in the old guard,
I’ll see you again.

I’ll take my shirt off,
and look in the mirror,
Disgusted at what I might see.
