Sympathize
Understand me
Listen as I dig through
The side of me I cannot see
Peeling layers off of my delusions
Wretching body searching for a sign
I've been eating my own shame
Mucking through the things
I know I should have been
Scrabbling in the darkness
For peace and light within
Need to know the difference
Between what I am and could have been
(Could still be)
In this side of me I cannot see
The side of me you cannot see
Peeling layers
Peeling layers again.
Sympathize and understand me, please.
The side of me I cannot see
growing clearer
Though I cannot see
I've been eating all my own shame
Mucking through the things
I know I should have been
Scrabbling in the darkness
For the peace and light within
Need to know the new within me
Need to feel the growth consume me
Evolution draws me in
With the promise of change.
In this
This side of me I cannot see
The side of me you cannot see
Peeling layers
Peeling layers again.
Veil is dropping
Layers fall
Listen to the side of me which
Always knows what's right despite confusion
Think about the dragging anchors that I treasure
Future of my soul
Balance and delusion.
In this
Side of me you cannot see
Layers dropping
Layers fall
I choose to live and grow
Take
Give
Move, love, and cry.
Whatever it takes to
See the side of me I cannot see
Changing like the tide
Breaking down the walls
Stepping past the me I can't outrun
To see the other side
