clarity's eluded me the entirety of this plight. i held myself up like a saint just fighting the good fight
but standing here before this mirror i see another side
in the dark i dwell and always tell of lessons there to learn. i took a seat and patiently awaited there my turn
but with the spotlight over me i'm starting to discern
i'm ugly in the light, ugly in the light. in darkness i'll reside, so ugly in the light
so shoot my love up like a drug and feel its glorious high. your head will spin as you begin to feel the stars align
but soon you'll wake, your heart will break, and the beauty there will die
i've something to confide, i'm ugly in the light. so in darkness i'll reside, too ugly in the light.
