Tired of getting by on manufactured personality
I am in need of a new normal and to grow up eventually
Yet the gift of anger keeps on giving in so many ways
Nowadays I’m feeling quite okay being one of the greys
Synapses, insecurities
Memory lapses, and maladies
This is all about me
I hope some sense and clever come through
But not a single word was written for you
This is all about me
Once I pulled the rabbit out of the habit of abusing me
Kissed goodbye the order of MMORG and their conformity
What once was is now reborn from in the scatter
Of me, who I used to be, and all of these Grey Matters
Narcissism or necessity?
What else did you expect to see?
This is all about me
A letter to myself— not addressed to you
Don’t take it as personal, whatever you do
This is all about me
Here in our eight arms, sharing electrons with my family
I wear the green and the Raven’s favor for my panoply
I’m a tiger, stag, and dragon— plus a bull whenever I need
Whatever else you think you see, this album is all about me
If you relate to what I say
Well, that’s great— don’t get carried away
This is all about me
If my feelings can apply to you
I hope they might mean something, too
This is all about me
