Reflections

My purpose has been eradicated
Just a shadow I've become
A disembodied silhouette
That I'm always running from
My motives have been pacified
My hands tied behind my back
Forced to see the very part of me
I tried so hard to mask thought i could forget

The ghost that follows me
He haunts my memories
With every sequence he is there
I wish he'd disappear

Vulnerable much like an open wound
My grip has been released
Finding out about myself this way
Is the only way it seems
Why must I beat myself into defeat
So sick of picking nails out of my feet
So tired of this weight upon my back
If I listen will I understand

The ghost that follows me
He haunts my memories
With every sequence he is there
I wish he'd disappear
The more i try to hide
The more he comes to life
I wish I couldn't see
This ghost in front of me

This fucking ghost of me
This ghost of me
This ghost of me
