Are you watching me?
I'm watching myself
I hate what I see
In this mirror,
Nothing seems real
It's all just a mirage
Of lies
Am I vain?
I'm vain
I'm imperfect
That's what I love
The obsession for the ordinary
OCD for hatred
Behind the mirror
My alter ego screams
'WAKE UP'
'WAKE UP'
'What the fuck are you doing with your life?'
I stare back
Blankly
'I don't know, nothing seems real'
I am a chameleon
An actor
It's all a pretence
Neatly packed together with pretty bows
In reality, it's a sinking ship
A broken nose
Blood spattered walls
An haven for the dregs
Where a noose is always within touching distance
