I've been pulling at loose threads A dark cloud hangs above my head I've been tearing at the seams Behind a mask of false esteem My flailing forward motion is just a fragile facade How can you just be yourself when you don't know who you are? I stare into the glass, I think it's back again Part of me that I've been dying to forget The shadow that I cannot shake The black dog that lies in my way Now I'm held down By these chains I can't break Am I just stuck in a hole?
