Is This Me?
As we try to find out who we are
We tend to forget who we've been
They always say you're the happiest
When you have everything that you need
Can obtain anything that you ever wanted
But what about the price you pay
What good is having everything
When you cant even look in the mirror
Because of the route you have taken.
What is it that has occurred
What is that has changed
I don’t know what to think
Am I simply deranged
I started out so well so great and nice
Now attitude has changed
From that sweet sugar to that dirty spice
I fear what I have become,
I am afraid to even see
I cant believe that person in the mirror
Looking back at me is me.
