Another old one. Developing an ego to live.
EGO

Stare at the mirror
Say bye-bye
Self be gone for a self unshy
Spawn of mind unleashed and free
Take control and cover me
Suit me up with gleaming attire
Turn it up till all the world catches fire

Ego bring me fame
Ego bring me life
Ego bring me love

Cross out the mirror
Hold me deep inside
Allow my true feelings to no longer hide
I've lived the life of a lie
Time to let the silence die
With my ego in my place
People won't know its really just my true face

Ego bring me a mask
Ego bring me a band
Ego bring me a man

Smash the mirror
I'll gather up some lads
We'll influence the masses by setting fads
We'll shock them onstage
Teach them all to cut through their cage with musical chords
My ego's message will even reach alien hordes

Ego bring me through
Ego bring me home
Ego bring me hope

Ego bring me compassion
Ego bring me understanding
Ego bring me soul-sedation
