Too Many Empty Nests - Ego Likeness

I wanted to show you

What I am now

What this means

I stripped off the costume

Lay down on you

Let you see

I stand naked before you

Pull you closer

As I breathe

I pour out religion

And pray you’ll believe

This is my own truth

This is what I know

I’ve wrecked all my chances

I’ve splintered my bones

I followed a burning

That led to your door

I walked down a pathway

I have died on before

This is mine…

I tried to convince you

Of my weakness

Of my truth

Now this is so painful

This is lost here

This is you

And this is mine
