• Inner Core

    I know you want to change
    just so that you can satisfy the needs of others
    I'm delighted for you, I truly am
    Things are finally going your way
    How you've always fantasized it would be
    But its got me questioning, is the old you still there?
    Are you hiding behind a shadow of a stranger?
    You've become unknown to me
    Your like an underrated rock band
    And It's as if a demon has possessed your body
    He's taken every last part of you and replaced it
    There has to be a trace of the true you in there somewhere,
    Trapped in the horrific battle of decisions
    Your confused, Its like your heart is speaking Japanese
    You've forgotten the definition of wrong and right
    The demon is up to nothing but mischief
    Its no good for you
    Yet you treat it like a prescription,
    Something you just have to do
    Your heart is a warrior, trying hard to keep up its guard
    What you don't notice is that it wont be long
    Till its shiny armor, starts to wither away
    I know your aching, you have lost all hope
    Its funny how you look so well put together
    Not terrified of any troubles life comes with
    Your plastic, like a barbie doll
    No tears, no jealousy, no anger, and no grief
    There is nothing human left about you
    But in the interior of your tough shell
    I can hear the cries of your heart
    As the days go by, the more it bleeds
    The more it longs for it to be free
    But its not difficult for me to see whats really happening
    And its completely true what they say
    The talk about how sometimes silence can seem so loud
    We never communicate, and you have not the simplest clue
    How I truly feel inside about you changing
    But its strange that with a quick glance
    from you now and then, I can read you like a childrens book
    Its like our souls have radars attached
    We don't utter a sole syllable to each other,
    yet I can understand what,your trying to say
    We are not communicating, but our silence is talking loud volumes
    And I hope you understand, that no matter where you are
    What you do, where you go, who your becoming
    I'll always be able to see deep inside your inner core
