It's a constant reminder
I can't become like you
Give into the pressure
It's something I'll never do
A constant struggle,
A fire that will never be put out.
Life's endless war against
The self you can't live without.
This rope has grown thin
I've grasped for far too long
But I know in the end,
We won't be singing the same song
As hatred has gotten to you,
It's shown in all you do
I fear it every day
I can't let it get to me

I Wonder

Reality fades into illusion,
Believing the shadows on the walls.
All I know to believe
Are just projections of
What others think is right.
These steps lead backward
Further away from what's real
Calling out for a god
Because that's what I've been told

Every day I fall deeper
Into a hole I know will only cause pain
I'm aware of these consequences
But for some reason I refuse to change
The taste of the days begin to burn
The hole grows deeper
And I lose sight of the sun -
Showing me a quick glimpse of hell
Reality can't be denied
But I'll suspend this dream world
Putting my hand deeper in the flame
I don't feel it now, but soon
I'll know the pain

Whose better? Who knows the truth?
It's a stupid game that has no use
Self expression we're all the same
Searching for acceptance in the same place
It hurts me every time
It hurts me just to see
It hurts me every time
That we refuse to change
I scream out but can't be heard
Your mind's made up, no lessons learned
Preach for change be we stand still
Problems of the past never change
Ashamed of each other.
We watch our history repeat
Fighting one another when we're on the same team
Stuck in this circle where we repeat the same mistakes
I'll push against it with all my effort
But I'm afraid I'll grow weak
I refuse to just sit by

The story's the same
With every day it repeats through time
Everything swallowed in sand
As it's struck down in my mind
Achievement of the impossible
Seems so close but it's always out of reach
This fable of satisfaction has been told
Through time but it's all a trick
That the jokers preach
I'm wondering,
I'm wondering when this story will ring true
Every thought tears into my fears and doubt becomes the only truth
Can't live my life in this dark
Can't let the bad beat out the good
It's an infinite fight against my mind
To wash this problem away
