I'm Not Your Ghosts

I'm not the one to fear

Though your eyes tell me different

My intentions were clear

But you made me out to be your villain

Like I've got daggers for teeth, protrude insects when I bleed

When in reality, I'm only what you make me

Make me, make me out to be

The end of your rope, the end of your wits

You catch me red-handed

Even if the glove doesn't fit

I'm not the ghost in your closet

Or the dark under your bed

You seem to have forgotten

I'm the one who hasn't left

(What's the purpose?)

What's the purpose of the violence?

The wars that we have led

You try so hard to tell me

That I'm the ghost instead

From beginning to end

I'm a different man in your lens (Lens)

Try to tell me why again

Pour my heart out just to let it soak

See the foundation of our house, oh, it's starting to mold

Strip away the filth, sinkin' in layers deep

You see, when I speak the truth

It's not the truth that you seek (Seek, seek)

Truth you seek

Haunted, you're haunted

By everything that you think

And if history repeats itself

I'll just be a memory

I'm not your ghosts

I'm not your ghosts

Your mirage is not my own
