Same Story, Different Day

Sitting atop of the throne you've built
Peering down upon an average boy
Filled with mistakes, instilled by insecurities

A hardened shell that I broke down or at least took a piece of
A glance was all that I have needed to shut the door

Poured this time
This soul
This being
All for what?

Poured this time
This soul
This being
All for what?

All for what?

A promise that was too good to keep (To keep)
Every word that was held...

You say I am the same story
But a deeper look projects a different image
One that sits not well

A deeper meaning that I will understand
