Breakthrough Lyrics

As I say hello to the face in the mirror

A Man I seem to have recognize before

He looks at me with a painful stare

He said he's had a life you wouldn't dare believe

And painfully he tells me a story

Of happiness, deceit and rage and grief

Don't let this happen to you

But I think we've had a breakthrough

The pressure has faded

But am I still the same

Soulless face in the mirror tell me

What has become of my treacherous fate

It seems destined to bereft upon me

Greeting me with conniving grin

Throwing me like the ashes from an urn

Drifting me out to sea

Don't let this happen to you

But I think we've had a breakthrough

The pressure has faded

But am I still the same

Oh yeah

As I walk, this tattered line

I shed my skin to become a better person

And the snake in me strikes at what purity I have left

I shed my skin to become a better person, yeah

And the snake in me strikes at what purity, purity

Everyday, I try and maintain

And to be awake in this world that we live

I close my eyes every time I see the world

In the shape that we put it in

A harden hard, a clouded mind

I'm playing games with the bones of my jealous past

To be enlightened would be the way

But the struggle inside is to learn to release
