[Chorus]

Fighting before my very eyes

Is the true self and the ego

Reconcile within or the masochist will win

Impose my will, forget my sins

[Verse]

What bares the better fruit?

Enlightened but ignorant

Ashamed by existence?

But no one knows the truth

With hope dies dignity

But what is pride worth to the dirt?

Yet we're the burdened

Like fate of maggots to the sky

Life is the spider to the fly

Is there a purpose?

Without the evil

How can we ever truly know the good?

The good

[Chorus]

Fighting before my very eyes

Is the true self and the ego

Reconcile within or the masochist will win

Impose my will, forget my sins

[Outro]

Will I ever know myself?

Are we even meant to know?

Will they forgive for all I’ve done?

Can this chrysalis be broke?

Crawl from the soil to the sun

Until the transformation comes

Imago flies, cast off these binds

Transcend this shell

There is no afterlife, just look around

We're already in hell
