Tesseract - Of Matter - Proxy lyrics

I'm a surrogate. I'm archetypal and itinerant. I'm your excuse to long for a superior. I will undertake. I will overcome. Imperfection you will find. (You look close enough, tear off the mask I need) This endeavour is not mine. (You subject me to the daggers you conceive) I'm stronger than I was before, thus you reinforce these walls. I can't fight you anymore! Threatened by the open door. All the chances I ignore. I can't stand still anymore. The day is done. Nothing left to say. Resting head in hands. Wishing I had known my place. To take a stand, the errand of a fool. I'm not to reprimand. I'm here to help you through. Is nothing like it seems? Living in this secret through a dream. It's dark and I can't see. Gather broken shards of self-esteem.
