center of combined arrogance...

This secret I've kept
For the longest time...

Different eyes, one circumstance.
Can't detect with just first glance...

I'm enclosed in this rubber room
Soundproof to the outside world...

New chapter has opened, familiar yet different
Approach to life changed, body follows new consent...

Helpless within myself,
I watch as our distance grows...

I've done many wrongs to you
I can recount all we've been through...

Today I woke up sweating,
Not remembering my dream...

Ever sickly, never well.
Dying slowly, no one can tell...

Lately I realize that nothing's going right.
Even though I have the power I can't stand to...

My mind, in the state it's in
Fears what the future brings...

I'm always smiling, always laughing.
The upward curl on my lips ae all that's seen...
