So I've been to rough but I gotta be me
I voice my opinion that's constantly
I think without speaking never bothering
To question my intention of hostility
I snap at the chains without hesitation
My mouth reacts my brains on vacation
Steady with the words they flow like water
Eroding the present with the nouns I foster
Maybe I'm sorry but probably not
If you know me then you might know my thoughts
A hardened exterior built from the pain
It's decades of defeat mixed with this rage
That has me acting in ways I don't know myself
I question my actions and try change
But I feel as though theirs no other place
For me to hide away this shame I embrace

It’s a portrait of myself a picture of me
This is how i am only way know to be
A description of the man not an image of the dream
I live inside this line ask and you shall receive
It’s a portrait of myself a picture of me
This is how i am only way know to be
A description of the man not an image of the dream
I live inside this line ask and you shall receive

Careless been accused of that more than once
My hearts M I A barely feel the distance in my touch
The clutch that I keep my feelings buried deep
Only let my guard down in my dreams when I sleep
It’s not that you don’t matter but I seem to go comatose
Just how I cope rather be alone than close
Isolated with my problems not trying to ignoring yours
I’d let you in I tried but I can’t seem to find the door
Would matter if I did what goods a lock without a key
In this puzzle box paradox shrouded in mystery
The emotions that I hide disconnected it’s true
Failed attempts to open an share the pain with you
Guess I’m aptly named rock judging the exterior of stone
Lack communication dropping out like dead zones
This constant apathy is impeding progress
Will I ever shed this image of thoughtless

It’s a portrait of myself a picture of me
This is how i am only way know to be
A description of the man not an image of the dream
I live inside this line ask and you shall receive
It’s a portrait of myself a picture of me
This is how i am only way know to be
A description of the man not an image of the dream
I live inside this line ask and you shall receive
