Looking Inwardly - 2014 Remaster

I delve into myself ceaselessly
 But I rarely see
 What I want to see
 Embracing the future
 Forgetting the past
 Love lost and misfortune
 The chaos and the crass
 I'm wary of you
 But you're oblivious to me
 I'm chained to your ego
 And there isn't a key
 I play with emotions
 But never my own
 Don't you recognise me
 Try looking inwardly
 But you won't see me
 Such a strange situation
 As I wallow in waste
 That such a trivial victory
 Should put a smile on your face
 Using me as the scapegoat
 For what you want to believe
 So I'll just bow out politely
 And tip my cap as I leave
 Comme ci, comme ca
 My eyes are wide open
 Yours are closed
 It's time you realised I'm a part of you
 Look inwardly
 Don't bleed for me
 Look to yourself
