The Rival Within
I spilled out my heart
For you to consume
And there in the dark
The denial, it loomed
You stared at the floor, and tried to ignore
You couldn't believe
A word that I spoke
The truth can deceive
In the absence of hope
The fate that you fear
You pull it so near
Well, if you could see
What is hiding beneath
This invisible mask on your skin
Then maybe one day
You could wake up and say
Goodbye to the rival within
The girl in the mirror
A stranger these days
Reflecting your fears
Distorting your face
Alone in the dark, the beauty departs
You won't take a chance
For fear of defeat
For every advance
A thousand retreats
The sheep lost her flock
So she runs to the fox
If you could see
What is hiding beneath
This invisible mask on your skin
Maybe one day
You could wake up and say
Goodbye to the rival within
If you could see
What is hiding beneath
This invisible mask on your skin
Then maybe one day
You could wake up and say
Goodbye to the rival within
If you could see
What is hiding beneath
This invisible mask on your skin
Maybe one day
You could wake up and say
Goodbye to the rival within
