Horrors of Self

Look again into the mirror that you despise
Keep looking over your shoulder
This shadow may not always be your own
It's living in you, on you, eating you alive
It bears a striking resemblance, it bears your scars
Confront the horrors of self

What no one knows is what you fear
Those thoughts you reject
Only horror hidden in time conceals what has been lost
Spitting into your own reflection, spewing hatred towards reality
You're just a speck of sand in an endless desert of agony
Horrors of self

I must confront this,
Confront the horror

Horrors of self
Must be confronted, to be forgiven
Horrors of self
Concealed by time, annihilate the past, let it be forgotten
Horrors of self
Must be confronted, to be forgiven
Horrors of self
Must be revealed to achieve contrition
Horrors of self!
