Not Another Self He
I am definitely not the person I was yesterday
When I woke up today
My life did not change
For this I do not feel like I belong in a cage
Where my thoughts suffer along with my doubts
With inner battles raging about in bouts
I know that with every truth comes a way of understanding
Although this may not always hold me in good standing
I may look in the mirror
And frighten myself with shock and terror
As soon as my reflection is anywhere nearer
With that cloud having lifted the day becomes clearer
Reassured once again in the face of looming danger
Responding to it without any boiling anger
When I woke up today

And frighten myself with shock and terror
As soon as my reflection is anywhere nearer
With that cloud having lifted the day becomes clearer
Reassured once again in the face of looming danger
Responding to it without any boiling anger
