The Real

Im ripping away at this
put upon face in the mirror
I need to get down to the real inside me
Through my eyes I can see a burning
inferno...
Melting away all my apathy....
Im Tearin
These
Walls
Down
and Im
Burning these lies
To
The
Ground
and whats left...
will be the truest part of me
Yes I welcome the fire...
I welcome the fire...

Cause most folk dont really
know me
only the faces Ive been
showing
now my inner soul
is glowing
as my outer shell melts
and starts
smoking...
I wanna burn this shell
Ive created to the ground
I wanna scream at
the speed of light
and break the bearer of sound
I wanna reach my hand through
the mirror and wipe the tears
from my face...
then I wanna lick my fingers
So I know how my spirits
tears taste...
Yeah... I wanna rip this mask
right off my face
So I can finaly see
the real person who's
been livin in sida me
