Haze - Temperance

Someone’s in the mirror looking back with a silly face

Damn, I cannot stand that fake smile and that stare

When I walk away that reflection just disappears

And it does the same if I break out in tears

Oh what a day, there’s a stranger in my room

Acting just like me, I’ve got to say that we look alike

Go away and leave me alone

I don’t like your bad company

Now I try to close my eyes

But this bitter taste remains

And there’s nothing I can do to ease the pain

Black or white, sun or rain

I’m just having a bad day

Hopefully tomorrow all the haze will fade away

Uncontrolled reactions make me move like I’ve gone insane

Trembling and shaking, I cannot move my legs

Something’s going wrong so that I cannot see no more

So it feels like the floor opens under my feet

I cannot relax, I can’t carry so much distress

I am suffocating, have to take one more breath

There are many thoughts rolling over into my head

And the bad result is that I feel so sad

Oh what a day, all my plans turned upside-down

I can feel the poison burning in my every cell

Now I try to close my eyes

But this bitter taste remains

And there’s nothing I can do to ease the pain

Black or white, sun or rain

I’m just having a bad day

Hopefully tomorrow all the haze will fade away

Uncontrolled reactions make me move like I’ve gone insane

Trembling and shaking, I cannot move my legs

Something’s going wrong so that I cannot see no more

So it feels like the floor opens under my feet

I cannot relax, I can’t carry so much distress

I am suffocating, have to take one more breath

There are many thoughts rolling over into my head

And the bad result is that I feel so sad

I don’t wanna go insane

I’ve to calm down, take a break

It is time to change my ways

To put troubles aside

(Now I try to close my eyes)

I don’t wanna go insane

(But this bitter taste remains)

I’ve to calm down, take a break

(And there’s nothing I can do)

It is time to change my ways

(To ease the pain)

To put troubles aside

I just cannot see what the hell is happening to me

I don’t recognize the person that I seem to be

(Now I try to close my eyes)

Simply I don’t like the way I’m acting, it’s not like me

(But this bitter taste remains)

All this mess will cease to exist, I’ll let happiness in

Now I try to close my eyes

But this bitter taste remains

And there’s nothing I can do to ease the pain

Black or white, sun or rain

I’m just having a bad day

Hopefully tomorrow all the haze will fade away

Someone’s in the mirror looking back with a silly face

Damn, I cannot stand that fake smile and that stare

When I walk away that reflection just disappears

And it does the same if I break out in tears

I have lost my energy, I try but I cannot wake

Wasted so much time in running after my brain

I have realized there’s no place that I’d rather be

Because for today I cannot stand myself
