Torture yourself? You may as well fight the air
Caught your own gaze with a spiteful stare
So many hide in cults of common sense
To justify the insults they dispense

An open book
A spoken word
A broken look
An emotion stirred

You can’t spy what’s black and white for me
Don’t ask why, you lack the sight to see
I never was, I’ll never be your nemesis

Talked to a man, he had a rule of thumb
Said life’s what happens while you’re waiting for things that never come
But that’s not mine, I’d have to say
You’re the sum of the chances you take and those that slip away

Ignore what you hear
Fill yourself with dread
Things aren’t clear
Ask for help instead

You can’t spy what’s black and white for me
Don’t ask why, you lack the sight to see
I never was, I’ll never be your nemesis

You’re real you’re sane
But you’re crippled with doubt
I feel your pain
It’s like it rippled out

Another warning
Can’t you heed
What’s your calling?
Where does it lead?


You can’t spy what’s black and white for me
Don’t ask why, you lack the sight to see
I never was, I’ll never be your nemesis

You can’t spy what’s black and white for me
Don’t ask why, you lack the sight to see
I never was, I’ll never be your nemesis

I never was, I’ll never be your nemesis
