DESCRIPTION:
First song of the new year! Enjoy!

Lyrics:

Will you just take a look at who I am, a puppet of your cast-off dreams
If you notice, there is absolutely nothing wrong with me
I carved this crystal mask so that you will never see me
I am the perfection that you want me to be

All of these shadows swirling 'round, dark turmoil of the sea
If you saw the monster that I am, would you still love me?
I’m fine, there’s nothing wrong
I’m dying on the inside
Is this really the way that you designed me?

I am the perfect droid
You will never know the flaw lies deep within my circuitry
Will you even hear my voice?
Or have I just become something you just won’t see?

This perfection, this crystal mask, this is what I have become
This hidden rage, this hidden fear, this is the monster I’ve become
Don’t look back, don’t look through me, is not this what you wanted?
For your dream, for your dream is my reality

I walk the line that you have kindly laid out right before me
This razor’s edge, this stinking cage, do you dare control me?!
My conduct’s calm and righteous
I’m seething in my bloodlust
Your eyes are open, but you can’t see through your fantasy

Do you see this plastic blade dragging through my flesh?
Do you see the dark blood that flows from me?
Do you see these puppet strings?
These straining threads? They cannot hold me!

This hidden rage, this hidden fear, is this the monster I am?
This perfection, this crystal mask, is this truly all I am?
Please turn away, don’t look at me, I am not what you wanted
I must make, I must make your dream my reality

The night is seeping through the cracks
I can’t repair my crystal mask
The light is shining into my cage
but can it smother all this rage?
Is this real, am I dreaming?
reality’s not what it’s seeming
Oh, only if I could find a way
if I could find a way to…

This perfection, this hidden rage, I won’t let dreams be my cage
This hidden fear, this crystal mask, your reality’s under attack
So lock me up, so run and flee, ‘cuz now you cannot control me
and so I will…

Let loose this rage, let loose this fear, my fate, it does not lie here
Shed perfection, throw off this mask, I will not let you choose my path
I’ll smash your dreams to smithereens if you dare to control me
For I choose my own…

Let loose this rage, let loose this fear, my fate, it does not lie here
Shed perfection, throw off this mask, I will not let you choose my path
I’ll smash your dreams to smithereens if you dare to defy me
For I choose, for I choose my own
My own reality
