Ego Is a Phoenix - Crywank

Couldn’t get my head around my head and so I wrote some songs

Tried to get some sympathy for shit I alone fucked up

Tried to chase some ego death my ego is a phoenix

Soon I believe all that strangers say, what’s bad and whats good

I can waste a day

Sat in the same place

Searching mentions of my name

And pictures of my face

I can waste a life

Fueling myself with spite

But when things are getting better

It still remains my drive

Tried to give a present to my friends neatly wrapped up

The present to my friends all along was really me

And what I have as a gift turned out to be a burden

And what I spoke of as I turned out to be we

Don’t ask me

I’m just the drummer

I watch you being passive

To those who support us

I became a bitter monster

You’re one now too, I see

Maybe I find it the hardest

When you start to act like me me

Tried to try again but we fell for the same traps

It all becomes a job in some form or way

Lose grasp of a passion soon loneliness seeps in

For months the other’s only familiar face
