Alone In The Spotlight

I stand here before the night 

Alone in the spotlight 

I hear the echoes of me checking the mic

The tempo of the moment is right

I pick an angle to show my veins 

Just to reveal how we are the same 

It all made sense to behave insane 

To attain your love, through pain 

To get you to hear who's behind the mic

I banged my head on the walls all through  

the night 

Delirious from the way you deny me, polite

I stay in the room and lie

Do I give in to the rage or Cry

Self affliction brings me back to life
