a rivalry between the controlled and the controller
You think that I don't hear your cries
You dont see the fear behind these enraged eyes
You pick and scratch and slice my skin
Not knowing your setting free the demon from within

You've stolen my concience and took my harmless mind
Fluffy clouds and sweet flowers you didn't know you stole
Everything but sorrow you've thoughtlessly left behind
You've driven us both senseless and cold

You've never prayed before you went to bed
Now that my posessed image floats in your head
Everynight before you sleep
In your ear my words slowly creep:

Bit by bit it all drowns, I will be the water
Bit by bit, it all bleeds, I will be the knife
Bit by bit, it all burns, I will be the fire

Don't mess with a fragile soul
