LENSING

[Intro] I’m looking in the mirror, I can feel it pulling at my skull. Tiny little gripping hands, I could swear they’re tearing at my soul. The tension’s growing, Stretching Ego from my Id. [Verse 1] What was it like to see, The person that I knew was me? What was it like to know, That I wasn’t falling down this hole? I’ve forgotten all I knew, I traded it for something “cool.” But the new is feeling old, I just don’t know myself anymore. [Pre-Chorus] I’ve forgotten how it feels, To be the real me. I’ve forgotten how it feels, To live outside my head. They would probably call it ego, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down. [Verse 2] I’ll tell you it’s not me, The monster that’s controlling me. But can you take my word? When my word’s the only thing that’s heard. I could swear it’s something else, It’s the psycho pulling at my shell. But the crazy might be me, I just don’t know myself anymore. [Pre-Chorus] I’ve forgotten who I was. Who is the real me? I don’t know what I could say, To let you in my head. They would probably call it ego, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down. [Verse] I’ve stared for far too long. I think that what was me is gone. And you will never know. That he fell down the rabbit hole. And there is no return, Now that Jekyll’s gone, Hyde is back. [Pre-Chorus] I’ve forsaken all I knew. This is the real me. Ego knows just what to say, To let me get my way. They would probably call it crazy, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down. [Bridge] I STARED WAY TOO LONG! THE ME I KNEW HAS UP AND GONE! WHAT’S LEFT, IT ISN’T ME! HE’S A MONSTER OF DEBAUCHERY! AND NOW THERE’S NO ESCAPE! ID IS DEAD! EGO FUCKING KILLED HIM! [Pre-Chorus] I’ve forsaken all I knew. This is the real me. Ego knows just what to say, To let me get my way. They would probably call it crazy, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down. [Pre-Chorus] I’ve forgotten who I was. Who is the real me? I don’t know what I could say, To let you in my head. They would probably call it ego, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down. [Verse 3] I’ve stared for far too long. I think that what was me is gone. And you will never know. That he fell down the rabbit hole. And there is no return, Now that Jekyll’s gone, Hyde is back. [Bridge] I STARED WAY TOO LONG! THE ME I KNEW HAS UP AND GONE! WHAT’S LEFT, IT ISN’T ME! HE’S A MONSTER OF DEBAUCHERY! AND NOW THERE’S NO ESCAPE! Id IS DEAD! EGO FUCKING KILLED HIM! [Pre-Chorus] I’ve forsaken all I knew. This is the real me. Ego knows just what to say, To let me get my way. They would probably call it crazy, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down. [Pre-Chorus] Say goodbye to who you knew. This is the real me. Ego knows just what to say, To let me get my way. I just tell them all I'm crazy, But to me it’s just: [Chorus] Lensing! Lensing in my brain. Bending! Bending out of time and space. Gravity! It’s the only thing that holds me down. Personally! I’m feeling kind of upside down.
