Where I Find Myself - Massive Ego

Batten down the hatches and close up all the doors

Secure all the latches as my black dog uses claws

Find hard the constant battle, I admit I’m so afraid

My emotions are in tatters and nerve endings are all frayed

I came to my senses, In my heart I have a dream

Feel pressure so intense, fight or flight is all it sees

These trials and tribulations, start troubles running rife

Escaping this reality of my sad and fucked up life

When I shut myself in a room

From a fear of impending doom

With a light from the full moon

Can I find myself?

All alone in my cocoon

Where I recharge and retune

I’ll be back here one day soon

It’s where I find myself

Goes down the generations, social ineptitude

Show signs of any weakness, no masculine attitudes

I face fists that give a beating, spill blood behind the school

Avoid your eyes from meeting or pretend to act a fool

Save face and stop pretending, you can never be that cool

Feed off your biggest fear that I must accept their rules

I get by with my demons like old friendships I’ve renewed

It’s better the devil you know than the devil you didn’t choose

When you feel like you are broken

And the world’s falling apart

Still dreaming of a place

Where I find myself

Don’t leave it left unspoken

What better place to start

It’s deep within my soul

Where I find myself

It’s time that I was woken

For me to play my part

I’m reaching for the point

Where I find myself

I leave this as a token

And I hope that you’ll take heart

Tomorrow is a place

Where I find myself
