Who am I

With so many fireflies all around me you would think this was a happy song/

But if you heard the first 3 chords, you’d immediately know you’re wrong/

I don’t even know who I am anymore, just fractured reflections of a broken man/

Incomplete and undone, so out of focus, unraveling more, guilted implications I don’t even understand/

The only reason I’m not drunk tonight is I’m out of rum/

The only reason I can’t escape is I can no longer run/

I want to lie and say I’m still fighting but my smile can’t lie anymore/

Truth is, I’m tired of feeling pain, tired of feeling drained, tired of feeling, but the whiskey just isn’t working anymore!/

My mind speaks in song lyrics, playlists and sad melodies/

All I hear is tears and the beat, the inner screams are off key and There is no harmony!/

Clawing at my own skin, trying to escape my own mind/

But you can’t escape you in a prison you built yourself in time/

Who is this i see in the mirror? I don’t recognize any of those features/

I don’t see me, just fractured fissures, I won’t acknowledge any part of that creature/
