lyrics
What will you do when the penny drops on your miserable life?
When the only fight you have is within yourself.
Me versus me is the ultimate war - not one I can win or even endure.
It's eating away at me, this war inside of me.
It will never let me go!
Mirrored perceptions never show the truth - always the deceptive side.
My life once full of hope and glory,
Now worth nothing, no hope left!
No more hope.
Why can't I see, I'm my own worst enemy?
A product of my own madness.
I couldn't ever fight this war alone.
Wasting my life is worse than death.
What have you left to lose, when you have nothing more to take?
What have you left to lose, when you have nothing more to take?!
Just another wolf, amongst the sheep.
Should've know it was too good to be true.
Why can't you see that I'm wasting away?
There's nothing left of this shell of a man.
Just looking at the mirrors, will condemn me to my own, personal Hell.
[clean]
When our true reflections slowly fade,
Who will be to blame?
When the image starts to die,
Who will realise?
These mirrors uncover where our true intentions lie.
There is nothing we can hide.
When our true reflections slowly fade,
Who will be to blame?
When the image starts to die,
Who will realise?
These mirrors are exposing us for what we are inside,
They know I'm falsely by your side.
Strength in numbers never works for the serpents,
Serpents!
Strength in numbers never works for the serpents,
Endure!
Strength in numbers never works for the serpents,
Control!
Strength in numbers never works for the serpents,
Your War!
