Looking in the mirror I’m impressed If you didn’t hear know that I’m the best Walk outside look at how I’m dressed I’m so obsessed, I’m so obsessed can't find anybody else that's better than me bronze silver gold but I’m all three Bought a new watch put it on my wrist I can’t resist, I’m a narcissist Moved out of our house, only love myself I only ever need me, I always had my doubts She sounded like jerry, always cried like a mouse I only love my reflection, that’s my wealth I said that’s my wealth Looking in the mirror I’m impressed If you didn’t hear know that I’m the best Walk outside look at how I’m dressed I’m so obsessed, I’m so obsessed can't find anybody else that's better than me bronze silver gold but I’m all three Bought a new watch put it on my wrist I can’t resist, I’m a narcissist I left her to focus on only me She didn’t let me shine I only want myself to feel free I love myself i’m so fine I love myself I said I’m so fine I love myself But what if I can’t make up my mind Maybe I’m not being very kind Maybe there’s something wrong with my mind Looking in the mirror I’m impressed If you didn’t hear know that I’m the best Walk outside look at how I’m dressed I’m so obsessed, I’m so obsessed can't find anybody else that's better than me bronze silver gold but I’m all three Bought a new watch put it on my wrist I can’t resist, I’m a narcissist I only love myself It didn’t have to be this way

Walking through the hallways with you, We were young and didn’t care at all. Laughing, talking is what we did, It’s what made us such a pair. My want and wish for a better crew Got in the way of what was true. I wish that we had never split Why would I ever want to leave? My pride, my desire for a bigger change, Took me away from you and our games. We grew apart from the joy and fun, And now we aren’t together as one. My want and wish for a better crew Got in the way of what was true. I wish that we had never split Why would I ever want to leave? Although it hurts to say it, I was the one who went to break it. My thought that we wouldn’t last, Blinded me from the past. And if it’s too late to say it, I want to fix it not end it. My want and wish for a better crew Took me away from what I knew. I wish that I could get it back Can we find a way to get back on track?

Verse 1: Head in the clouds through the air it floats My consciousness evades me I need the antidote At lightspeed I’m traveling far far away on planet earth I don’t want to stay But still I try to grasp the crust with my fingers In the outer reaches my mind still wants to linger Chorus I can’t lose consciousness But in a way it feels right I can’t focus I don’t have the might Up to the stars I look with hope Deep Into outer space my mind climbs a rope Verse 2: Drifting off at night i’m half sleep Try to make it full, so I try to count some sheep A shadow looms large, sucking me in Hurdling towards a hole now it seems my death begins Musical Bridge Chorus 2x: I can’t lose consciousness But in a way it feels right I can’t Focus I just don’t have the might Up to the stars I look with hope Deep Into outer space my mind climbs a rope

hounds are out tonight looking for a heart to bite blood runs down but they don’t care and they can take you anywhere, I’m standing in the pouring rain, and I can feel the fear and shame, the paradise so far away, I ask myself “am I insane” bite’s too deep; I’m bleeding out but I can’t show it, make no sound don’t even have the time to care I’m everyone, I’m everywhere, I’m back again, I’m feeling fine and I don’t even think I mind the way my words come out all wrong I’m moving through, I’m moving on but love moves through my room like a ghost in bloom my heart, it beats so fast, but my lips won’t move wonder what I’ll do when it fades away when I’m caught out the rain let the water move right through me well, I can’t stop the rain and love can’t stop the rain from falling you bloody beasts what have you done you bloody beasts what have you done you bloody beasts where have you gone you bloody beasts where have you gone oh, don’t you leave me out here alone has it occurred to you that every single thing we do is meaningless, won’t mean a thing we fight and fight but cannot win, my love is an illusion, a reflection in my mind, of all the things I wanna see, the lies I let myself believe still those hounds are running wild, the blood shines bright across their hides pain consumes those bloody beasts it’s everything I try to hide love moves through my room like a ghost in bloom my heart, it beats so fast, but I won’t make it through wonder what I’ll do when it fades away, when it fades away when it fades away, it fades away, like I’ll fade away over and over and over and over it keeps turning and turning and turning me over and over and over and over it keeps turning and turning and turning me over and over and over and over it keeps turning and turning and turning me over and over and over, yeah we never win
