Do you think what I've done can be justified?
                              If I revealed my secrets you would be petrified. 
                      Knowing the man that wears this mask has long ago died.
                  He has been replaced by a cold emptiness that only intensified.
                     Who knew that suffering and happiness were so closely tied?
                 Most likely the same who thought it best to act like it was implied.
                  Going through life ignoring a hole so deep it can only be inside.
                       Saying its a means to an end as they duck inside to hide.
        Saying it's for the best as it fills up with none other then the tears they've cried.
                                   This is the cage I plan to leave far behind. 
                   But it's still only the first step to escaping my labyrinth of a mind.
                  With its twisted ways and dark corners who knows what's to find.
                With the ones that have come before who knows whats left behind.
                But I'm not alone, this place I use to call safe in no longer just mine.
           These voices in my head whispering to give in like a love struck valentine. 
                     Urging me to take the last step over this already blurred line.
                      We've been given one chance at life, and regret is the fine.
           So many have tried, but what it means to be alive is all thats left to define.
