LYRIC FOR SALE

By Six Degrees

It's time to say goodbye
To the only man I know
To the image in my reflection
To my soulmate through the past

I looked in the mirror and he spat in my face
The discordant, disturbing, disruptive disgrace
Two men at loggerheads, Jekyll and Hyde
One of them won, now the other must die

I know two reasons why
Only one of us must go
Your aborted insurrection
Was your first mistake, and last

You know what I did cos you led me astray
As fear and loathing bleached colour to grey
I feared for my safety alone with myself
Unspooling, self-harming, corroding my health

Now I've brought you here to die
To conclude your destructive show
Cos whatever your intentions
The damage you did was vast

A future to salvage from rage undefined
Amends to be made for the tears we cried
fxxx myself, alter ego, you cancerous curse
The way I became made the way I am worse

And when two men enter, one man grieves but no man leaves til the demons are slayed
My last rite of wrongs, condemning to death the life of the alter ego I made

I swear I'm not that man any more
I never was
I never will be
Please don't give up on me
