You found me lost
A jaded cause
You painted hope discarded
A perfect lie
No question why
I let myself be baited
But everything comes with a cost, they say
Evrything comes with a cost, they say
And in the wake of my perception
And in the corner of my mind
I see the rift in my reflection
I know I'll always be your kind
I left myself unguarded
I let me mesmerise
In dualist confinement
The mind and heart combines
But every time I find myself
A little harder to define
And every time my shadow fails
You hold me tight
And in the wake of my perception
And in the corner of my mind
I see the rift in my reflection
I know I'll always be your kind
And there - like a figment of some recollection
A glimpse of what I used to be
Unfettered by these shackles that permeate my thoughts
Begging the question: what am I?
I can't escape
No walls to scale
But everything comes with a cost, they say
Evrything comes with a cost, they say
And in the wake of my perception
And in the corner of my mind
I see the rift in my reflection
I know I'll always be your kind
You'll always be my kind
It's all in my head
