lyrics
Verse 1
The two sides of me
One is modest
Other puts the pride in me
One is saying speak the truth
Other feeds the lies to me
One uses the eyes to see the beautiful
The other got em locked on every image
That is known to be lewd and it's disputable
Which side to follow and
Which side to bottle
Inside my hollow head
I feel it might misguide
Tomorrow may not be the same
No matter what, both leaves are
Falling from the same tree
Sometimes it blurs in the middle
Thus emerges another side
First in this riddle
Then the good real slowly converges with evil
And gives birth to me
It gives birth to me
Chorus
It's a constant battle with my conscience
Rattling my insides, all sort of nonsense
What I know is wrong up against what feels right
Show me what is real
I've been waiting on an insight
Verse 2
Both sides got a role to play
Both are really close to me
Until the day I'm old and grey
Finally when my soul escapes
Into the golden ray of light
At the end of the whole parade
My actions get recorded by the
Angels on my shoulder blades
My mind is in a crisis
The only bit of good in me is
Splicing with a virus
The fight inside's deciphering
What lies behind my eyelids
The righteous part of me slowly
Gives into my vices
I dive into my psyche
Find a place for me to hide again
Day to day I'm tired of playing
Host to a leviathan
I walk along a crooked path
Right between the good and bad
My "should've done's" standing looking
Pale against my "shouldn't have's"
This is the type of thought that
Keeps me up deep in doubt
One is trying to weed em out
The other takes the cynic route
It's me plus all you other homo sapiens
Every nine months pushing out little Damiens
Chorus
It's a constant battle with my conscience
Rattling my insides, all sort of nonsense
What I know is wrong up against what feels right
Show me what is real
I've been waiting on an insight
