Bangalore, India
A name and a face, is all it takes To make this world a better place But don’t be afraid Your innocence will keep you safe Asking how I can take a side Ask the shadow, next to mine Look deep into his eyes And find the value of life Find me before I fight myself Find me before I frighten myself Find me before I find myself And scribble down your path to hell What happens when it’s not so hard To find ways of becoming a god? What happens when it becomes so hard To find ways to make it stop? Take another note Make another ghost Take another note Bring him close It’s closing in… But it’s not the end And a forfeit Doesn’t make a win Find me before I fight myself Find me before I frighten myself Find me before I find myself And scribble down your path to hell Look over all the pieces that you missed While I realize that ignorance is bliss And I can chase my own tail Turning the hounds on a long cold trail Just one touch, might be just too much To bring back the addiction, the lust To bring back the deception and lose trust Too close is close enough Find me before I fight myself Find me before I frighten myself Find me before I find myself And scribble down your path to hell
