The Voice To My Left

Here sat on my shoulder 
Is a voice that's of mine but bolder 
When I'm unsure 
It's there to lure 
Me into things that perhaps I shouldn't consider 

It's like a key 
That unlocks a different side of me
For it controls what I do 
And that was when it threw 
My life into omniscience 

Apparently they call it a conscience
