Lyrics for Ouroboros as an Overused Metaphor

In this moment, im cut right to the core Cause i'm at war with mine, i can't stop crumbling Look at me look at me now, with my back against the wall Don't give in, try to find the balance The relapse is killing me no, take a breath and cave in, you're weathered from the storm. Oh what a life, I didn't mean it. I'm torn in every way, I'm left frayed and so tired. And most will never see the parts it takes from me, Feel the pain with every breath, I feel the pain with every breath. How can I cope when it's me that's the problem? There's no escape from yourself I know, I'm the substance, that i tear apart Inside me, lost with no control In this moment, im cut right to the core Cause i'm at war with mine, i can't stop crumbling Look at me look at me now, with my back against the wall Don't give in, try to find the balance The relapse is killing me So hide me away, hide me away Cast out everything i know so that I can Take all the blame, take all the blame They wont even miss me at all This is every thought inside, i can't stop to think, its corrupting me Cross out everything I'm at war with the source of my consciousness, how can I survive?
