… my confession

because i’m diluted
&
perfectly flawed

i shall
live by passion
&
not by law

and i’m
insecure …
i need aggression

to
feed the spiders
of perception

and i’m
supposed to be strong
& have
all the answers

a
cannibal
in the
new church of cancer

but i’m
nothing special
i’m not unique

i have
many secrets
& i
eat the weak

and i’m
at an end

i’m at an end …..

and there’s …
NO WAY OUT!!

[chorus]

i need to find my sanctuary
….. someplace safe
gotta get this outta me
….. this is my escape

II.
and i
think about it
all the time

i’m
volatile
&
afraid to cry

but i’m
still not comfortable
in my skin

and the
anesthetics slowly
wearing thin

& i
need to talk to
someone new

i need a different
latitude

& i’m
in this void

all alone!
feeling needy

… hungry to grow

but i’m
suffocating
— can’t come down

and …. no ….
THERE’S NO WAY OUT!!!

[chorus]

i need to find my sanctuary
…. someplace safe
gotta get this outta me!
…. THIS IS MY ESCAPE!!!

— all i see is sadness
all i see is sadness ….
what’s left?

— this will teach them.
this will teach them,

……you’ve got to……
push.
Push.
PUSH….
YOUR WAY OUT!!!

FOLLOW ME!
FOLLOW ME!
THIS IS YOUR WAY OUT!!

……..you are not alone

– this is where i hide my power
– this is where i become free
– this is where i take control
– and slowly choke your fantasies

– i want to know my day is coming
– see my enemies be punished
– shed my skin again
– this will be my best revenge!!

SHED MY SKIN AGAIN
THIS WILL BE MY BEST REVENGE!
