lyrics

Self-portrait in a convex mirror
Or just another season in hell
We didn't want to arm the ramparts
But someone had to

Moving forward by our own volition
An equal distribution of blood
On our hands, in our hearts, up and running now
Full speed into the dark

Self-portrait in a convex mirror

You said you weren't afraid of the future
Maybe that's part of what's wrong
Guaranteed going straight down the middle now
Ghosts in the sidecar

Self-assured but you know there's a problem
But no one can agree on what's wrong
Success means never knowing how sorry you look
Even with the clarity of alarm

Self-portrait in a convex mirror
