The Alter Ego Rises
Was it an eleventh hour transformation that you had been waiting for,
or were you surprised?
Surprised to have encountered a complete stranger
that had been sitting in the darkest corner
of your soul
trying to make a fire out of damp tinders- tinders which seem to have survived
all your silent screams and harsh cries
& that stranger has finally got your fire burning
How old is your yearning?
The darkness itself is making a way for that stranger now
She’s coming, she’s coming over now
Does she seem familiar? Does she make you feel new?
Is she returning to you or is she replacing you?
Oh, I always knew my change wasn’t around the corner
It was threatened, it was cornered
Stay still now, the answers are coming
Look in the mirror now
Can you hear the drumming?
What’s left of you?
What’s left in you?
What’s left for you?
What’s left by you?
Oh, she’ll tell you.
Oh, she’ll show you.
New world is in order
Oh, she’ll build you.

.. do you?
I don’t remember him anymore
I don’t remember the way he used to walk
The way he used to talk, the things he used to talk
I don’t remember his face anymore
His eyes, his nose, his lips
Although I try to remember
I try hard, really hard
I do remember how it felt when we kissed
But I don’t remember the kiss anymore
I do remember feeling happy
I don’t remember the reason anymore
I remember our love
I don’t remember us anymore
I want to... I want to remember
I just don’t know how anymore

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.

Death is heavy.
Oh, you make me feel so alive.
Yes, you do.
I’m only afraid that I’ll drag you down to the grave.
Not in spite of the efforts you take,
but because of the weight that I carry.
