Face It

Where to start, these rushing thoughts... Mindless responses without regard have left me in fear and guard of my innocence.

You give one hell of a performance and construct one brilliant ballet of self destruction thanks to the man apart from the rest standing in the shadows of the act I at least have hope... **Stimulates from my insecurity and inability to conform in the abruptness of change. Even when something better stands by masked by the shadows, beckoning me with allusiveness... **
