Try Me Again

I left then I reappeared Neon-lights up ahead Cut deep through the evening I feel the boredom so sweetly seeping in Down in the streets a car alarm blares Windows are fogged black Smell of dead in the air Stopped the rot in its tracks as I shut the door I sat down in a dim-lit corner Figured all of this is hell But at least I stir the flames myself When I felt something simmer inside me I shook the shadow off my back Took a match and flicked it through it the air Now watch it rise Watch it rise Watch it rise I'm more of who I am And less of who I wanted to be This is me I'm more of who I am And less of who I wanted to be So I dance with the flashes all through the night Strike poses for the life-drained masses Expose my own path through the wreckage Your eyes have always missed me by an inch Yet you claimed to know me better than whoever Well I bet you have never really seen me like this I'm more of who I am And less of who I wanted to be This is me This is who I am This is what I'll be in the end This is me This is me This is who I'll be in the end Nothing worse can happen Let the flames lick your wounds Even if you deem yourself ruined And the saviour skips their part Just let it shake Let it shake Let it shake Let it shake Let it This is who I am This is what I'll be in the end This is me This is what I am This is who I'll be in the end I've tried All those times Every single day Every night To be who I am To be more of me And it's fine It's so fine I'll take pride In what's mine Why don't you try me again now A sudden flicker of a light Signs to a change of times Well I'm on fire now So here it goes I gladly take this blow Breathe out the past Tear all the skin of my flesh And turn it all to ash A sudden flicker of a light Signs to a change of times Well I'm on fire now So here it goes I gladly take this blow Breathe out the past Tear all the skin of my flesh And turn it all to ash
