Recognize

Well, I've had enough of these selfish crimes
I hurt myself again, not knowing why
It seems so easy to leave it all behind
And avoid the truth, I think I'd rather just go blind

Then everything erupts, my life has come unglued
And the ties that bind have left me, what am I to do?

(Aah) can't seem to recognize (aah) that stare behind those eyes
(Aah) who is this man I see? (Aah) who's looking back at me?
(Aah) can't focus through the pain (aah), and I am fading into nothing
The reflection must get clearer

I think I'm cracking up, like I've lost my mind
I hurt myself again, still don't know why
I end up the same way each and every time
Can't avoid the truth, there's just nowhere to run and hide

Then everything erupts, just like I knew it would
Been down here long enough, it never felt that good
Is this what I've become? My life has come unglued
And the ties that bind have left me, what am I to do?

(Aah) can't seem to recognize (aah) that stare behind those eyes
(Aah) who is this man I see? (Aah) who's looking back at me?
(Aah) can't focus through the pain (aah), and I am fading into nothing
The reflection must get clearer than it appears to be right now

There must be someone I can see
There's gotta be something for me
Show it now, let it go free
I know it's there, waiting on me
Let it out, let it go free

(Aah) can't seem to recognize (aah) that stare behind those eyes
(Aah) who is this man I see? (Aah) who's looking back at me?
(Aah) can't focus through the pain (aah), and I am fading into nothing
The reflection must get clearer

(Aah) can't seem to recognize
(Aah) can't seem to recognize
(Aah) the reflection must get clearer
