So many ways to cover up
I decide for myself when I'm exposed
sometimes i can't take the pressure
so I keep my fingers crossed
whenever I get to say
watch me do my own thing
I reverberate for a while
thinking can i be proud of what i did

I'm my own protection
only i can see myself in the dark
I'm my own danger
cause in the dark you can't see my heart
every flaw that i wish i could evade
the imperfectness I could never accept
my ego and nerves hadn't left any room
for my mind to know how
to navigate in the gloom

I'm not close friends with god
no one can show me how
my leader is my take off
on whatever has been spit out
never could let me be educated
on my expense, my blood
I'm gonna stand out naked  
bearing the flood

I'm my own salvation
only I can save myself in time
I'm so judgmental
my danger is what i decide
every flaw that I wish I could evade
the imperfectness I could never accept
my ego and my nerves hadn't left any chance
for my mind to know how
to plead for defense

I'm the most evil turkey
but it doesn't affect anyone
I'm speechless when I'm scared
and it ripps my guts
i could look like the human twin
of miss marionette
but you'd know it when you see me
light the cigarette

simple isn't simple
for I've seen the light
by my own creation
you can see my heart
I've opened a box
I now can not close
I received a blank sheet of paper
and started to compose

I'm my own little drummer
I go by the beat of my heart
I'm my own first aid kit
I take a bandage and cut
every flaw that i wish i could evade
the imperfectness i could never accept
my ego and my nerves hadn't left any note
for my mind to know how
to end what i wrote
