Lyrics to Back Inside the Glass

A twisted knife

(A twisted self rejection)

A porcelain reflection

Where sorrys die

(Where apologies aren't accepted)

And my mind is the murder weapon

I know I could control it

But it's so consuming once it's in

A maniac in bilocation

Stretched in two different directions



Now I'm back inside the glass

And I know that the pain is coming

Now I'm back inside the glass

The regret has slithered into me

Now I'm back inside the glass

And I know that the pain is coming

Now I'm back inside the glass

Now I'm back to what I used to be



A manic in denial

A speculum injection

A parasite (lives inside)

It swims through my intestines

Outward appearance can be deceptive

In the process of

Dividing

Designing

(Open the door)



Now I'm back inside the glass

And I know that the pain is coming

Now I'm back inside the glass

The regret has slithered into me

Now I'm back inside the glass

And I know that the pain is coming

Now I'm back inside the glass

Now I'm back to what I used to be



When the thing I tried to kill

In this redesign of self lives



Slithering

Into me

Becoming

Designing

Slithering

Into me



Open. Up. And. Let. It. Back. Inside



Open up and let it back in



Now I've got (refracting)

What I need (shimmering)

It's in me (suffering)
