Clean Sheets

I can be whoever you want me to
Starting fresh and anew
Compromise and fear won't be my companions this time
I'll have new thoughts behind my direction
The tips of my breath will be seasoned with new hopes and dreams
Walking the path set before me
With a blank mind knowing nothing except goodness
Like laying on a bed with new clean sheets
So I want to awake from my old life into this
The energy it takes to build a bridge
Is not worth the time or awe it takes to burn one
Begin in me a new work
Promise I will sit still while you make the incision
Cut out the black and place in the artificial light
Even false light is good light for it illuminates the way
For the pit falls and disappointments were becoming too much
Let us leave the places of regret and move on to better things
I didn't want it to be like this
Yet it seems that it has to be like this
The things I was never told all came back to haunt me
Wearing dark clouds they surround me in my sleep
I've seen the devils face and all I want to do is forget
Revoking memory but leave experience
I want to be free from the chains of my perverted mind
In all they see is the brokenness that resides inside of me
