The mirror's harsh reflection
Reveals my true complexion
A twisted self-perception
A life of self-rejection
The venom courses through me
The poison's hard to undo
This path of self-destruction
Is caustic therapy
Staring at the mirror a reflection so unclear
Corroded by the demons that I've harboured year by year
The scars run deeper than the eye can see
Looking inside of me feels like caustic therapy
The pain it never fades
The voices they won't be swayed
I'm trapped within this cage
Of self-inflicted rage
Caustic therapy burning through my veins
Acidic remedy for all this inner pain
Caustic therapy a bitter pill to take
Dissolving every part of me for sanity's sake
Peeling back the layers of this fractured disguise
Unveiling all the flaws that I've been trying to hide
The truth is like a dagger piercing through my heart
From the inside out it's tearing me apart
The pain it never fades
The voices won't be swayed
I'm trapped within this cage
Of self-inflicted rage
Caustic therapy burning through my veins
Acidic remedy for all this inner pain
Caustic therapy a bitter pill to take
Dissolving every part of me for sanity's sake
The cycle never ends this vicious self-abuse
I'm my own worst enemy with nothing left to lose
But maybe in the ashes I'll find a way to break free
From this
Caustic therapy burning through my veins
Acidic remedy for all this inner pain
Caustic therapy a bitter pill to take
Dissolving every part of me for sanity's sake
Caustic therapy
