Ego Trip - Twilight's Embrace

[00:01.74] I can hear a voice through the static,
[00:06.96] white noise and blinding light
[00:12.22] My mind is so erratic,
[00:16.81] and my thoughts are not my own
[00:22.92] I can see a face in the mirror,
[00:28.19] staring back at me with bloodshot eyes
[00:33.53] An expression filled with mounting horror,
[00:38.99] as I start to realise
[00:44.26] There is a voice inside me, no one can hear,
[00:56.28] that speaks to me in tongues
[01:05.66] Like a devil on my shoulder, it whispers in my ear,
[01:16.94] telling me I don't belong
[01:26.90] No one knows the secrets I've buried,
[01:32.28] in the darkest corners of my mind
[01:37.53] Or the heavy burden I've carried, for so long along
[01:48.29] If they knew the depth of my weakness,
[01:53.57] or the darkness that I've tried to hide
[01:59.02] Would they see, all the agony, I've locked away inside
[02:09.52] So many secrets, I've hidden for so long,
[02:21.67] locked tight without a key
[02:30.84] Each one a weakness,
[02:36.14] a symptom of the sickness,
[02:42.89] that lives inside of me
[02:52.35] Come take the ego trip, step inside and see
[03:02.87] Take a chance, and lose your grip,
[03:08.07] on the self, on the I, on the me
[04:17.63] So be careful what you wish for,
[04:22.97] you just might lose yourself
[04:28.21] Giving up, a little too much,
[04:33.51] slowly becoming someone else
[05:42.96] Some words are better left unspoken,
[05:49.66] and better left unsaid
[05:53.62] Some doors should never be opened,
[05:58.81] some doors can never be closed again
[06:04.26] Now I'm nothing but a voice in the static,
[06:09.53] lost forever in the blinding light
[06:14.83] My mind, consumed by panic,
[06:20.25] my senses overthrown
[06:25.43] Though I see a face in the mirror,
[06:30.86] it's an image that I do not recognise
[06:36.11] I recoil in wordless terror,
[06:41.57] for the face I see, it is not mine
[06:47.01] This inner tempest, has overwhelmed my senses,
[06:58.92] and left me almost blind
[07:08.20] It is relentless, and I have no defences,
[07:18.96] against the demons that live within my mind
[07:29.62] Come take the ego trip, step inside and see
[07:39.97] Take a chance, and lose your grip,
[07:45.41] on the self, on the I, on the me
