Cyranoid

Lyrics

It comes before I think the thought I disappear in what it says It sounds like me, I know it’s not The words arrive, my mouth obeys

I am here, but never me I manifest an entity What you hear and what you see A shadow’s face where I should be

The real me shouts, I can’t resist Each sentence carves another scar A puppet’s dance by iron fist I wonder who we really are

I am here, but never me I manifest an entity What you hear and what you see A shadow’s face where I should be

When silence comes, it slips aside I shelter in my fractured mind No where to run, no place to hide No saving grace so I’m resigned

I am here, but never me I manifest an entity What you hear and what you see A shadow’s face where I should be

A shadow’s face where I should be
