You can watch me fester in masturbatory quiet
I swallow a bottle of wine so I can get by it
You can really tell when I'm a self indulgent mess
I will wear your ego out and make you feel like less

And I'm gonna have a hard time
getting over myself

Getting over myself, I'm an ice-capped everest
A mountain in the clouds with its natural arrogance
Getting over myself, such a worthless little shit
Wasting time in her own mind and living by her wit

I have become a professional defense mechanic
I have shut the glass door between you and the atlantic
I have watched the teenagers have sins on the beach
I have written words on paper listening to the sea

    unintentional isolation.. brought about by egocentrism and ignorance for other people? and when that person tries to fix what they created, their own self pride gets in the way of the healing proccess/solution. feeling alone and at the same time, pushing people away.

    that's just what i'm getting from this.
