I am talking too loud when there's so much

I should be hearing

I am walking too proud when I know a fall is nearing

I am thinking too much for someone who knows so little

I am spinning so fast, I'm landing in the middle

Of this cold familiar place where I struggle to save face

And I lose all of the things that matter



Chorus

I don't want to be here again

Bowed at the alter of ego

I've sacrificed most everything

Here at the alter of ego





I've got just four friends I will let advise me

Me, myself and I and the evil twin inside me

We talk each other up and we bring each other down

'Cause there's nothing we like more than the ever present sound

Of the voice inside my head, once again it's led

To losing all the things that matter





Repeat Chorus





I need a touch of love, I need a thrust of grace

A push, a shove, a slap in the face

'Cause I have gazed too long at the person in the mirror

As I turn away, I'm finding things are clearer

I will set my sights on Someone so much higher

Not on what I want, but on what I require

To travel to the place where at last I can embrace

All the things that really matter





Repeat Chorus
