I Am Many

I see the mirror start to crack Reflections whisper, pulling back One voice is calm, the other fights I shift between my day and night A flicker of fire, a shadow of stone Who takes control when I'm alone A heartbeat cold, a touch like glass Who wears the face behind the mask A thousand voices, all are me They pull, they push, they disagree I shift, I burn, I break, I bend Who will take control again Cold hands, sharp mind, she whispers low Don't let them in, don't let them know She plays the game; she moves the piece A queen in ice, a war in peace But when I dream, the artist wakes Paints with fire bends, then breaks She sings in colors, dances blind A spark, a vision, lost in time A thousand voices, all are me They pull, they push, they disagree I shift, I burn, I break, I bend Who will take control again Who will take control again One breath, one scream, one shattered sound Who's in control? Who's breaking down They all are me; I am them too I choose who leads—but is it true A thousand voices, all are me They pull, they push, they disagree I shift, I burn, I break, I bend Who will take control… again Again
