equals - Set Your Goals

Trying to find the hero

I don’t want to let any of you down

I see me on the floor of a room inside

My own house with a set of darker eyes

Distortion shows row to open doors

I closed for good reasons years before

Growing up, I was told one too many times

I’d never be good enough, never be alright

See, I’m an equal like you with fears

I’m not above or below.

My only home is here

Want you to know I sometimes let go

Shouting words at a mirror

Trying to find the hero

They all say I am

The voice behind these verses

Is still so far from perfect

I don’t want to let any of you down

Kick, kick, kick myself, numbed up to reacquaint with hell

Lost touch and stared off into doubt

Depersonalized in a cloud

Trading afflictions for imperfections

Shouting words at a mirror

Trying to find the hero

They all say I am

The voice behind these verses

Is still so far from perfect

I don’t want to let any of you down

Because I have troubles I hide

And emotions that I cry

And I am not strong sometimes

I, too, need song to save my life

Run from self harm

Experiencing alterations

(Run from self harm.)

No control over self-perception

(Run from self harm.)

I am on outside bones observing these skeletons

(Get away) I hate the darkness

(Get away) I turn all the lights on

Shouting words at a mirror

Shouting words at a mirror

Shouting words at a mirror

Trying but I can’t find the hero

Shouting words at a mirror

Trying to find the hero

They all say I am

This voice behind these verses

Is still so far from perfect

I don’t want to let any of you down

Because I have troubles I hide

And emotions that I cry

But I will get through this just fine

We have each other to remind
