Higher Circles - Second Thought lyrics

It happens every day The pity and the shame Furtive whispers rust away In a constant refrain You think you know yourself It's all that matters now The world's become your jury Give them what they want Until the anger takes control I guess it makes you high to point out the flaws that make me who I am Are you empty inside? It must be an addiction that voids common sense You know I see the same in me And I close my eyes until they find out who we are Behind my own eyes lurks a strange disguise Into my heart, in my soul, in my mind I reach into the dark And pull the bleeding nightmare from my heart Some people can't see beyond (beyond) the lies they tell themselves Oh, I'm not the only one Do you have a place inside Where you secret them away Oh, be honest with me (Oh, be honest with me) Who will field the questions Who will take the floor Who will dare to bare their neck To the cold steel truth It happens every day I've learned to tune it out I've learned to turn the other cheek And wait for judgment day
