Conversations w/ my Better Self (Break Ur Mould)

I look at myself like I'm somebody else
And I'm observing this situation from somewhere faraway
And I talk to myself like I am somebody else
Somebody tellin me that it's gonna be alright
Somebody beggin me to fight the fight

I've been here before, when I was somebody else
And I might be back this way again
But by then I'll be someone new
And I'll give it another try cause that's all I can do
But if I come back I'm comin back for you

And I know you're gonna take me to that other place
Cause I see the invitation written on your face
Tho I can't make out all your letters
I believe I'm getting better now I know the way

And I'd like to think it's by your side where I belong
Cause I helped you write the lyrics to your siren song
And if you wanna get em all to know your name
And you're still losin at your own game
You might be playin wrong

I wanna blow on your dice before you throw your roll
I wanna send all your circuits into overload
I wanna spark your fuse then I wanna watch you explode
I wanna get out ya way so you could take your shot
And I'll bet your bottom dollar that it's all you got

I wanna break your silence and then I wanna break your mould

And I know you wanna take me to that other place
Cause I see the implications written on your face
And if you wanna get him at his little game
Because you got yourself a little fame
You might be playin wrong

I wanna blow on your dice before you throw your roll
I wanna send all your circuits into overload
I wanna spark your fuse then I wanna watch you explode
I wanna get in your way so when you take your shot
You get alla this cause alla this is whatcha got

I wanna break your silence and then I wanna break your mould

I wanna blow on your dice before you throw your roll
I wanna send all your circuits into overload
I wanna spark your fuse then I wanna watch you explode
I wanna get out ya way so you could take your shot
And I'll bet your bottom dollar that it's all you got

I wanna break your silence and then I wanna break your mould

(I look at myself like I'm somebody else
And I talk to myself like I am somebody else
Somebody on their knees beggin me to fight
Somebody tellin me that it's gonna be alright)

(I've been here before, when I was somebody else
And I might be back this way again
But by then I'll be someone new
And I'll give it another try cause baby that's all you or I can do)
But if I come back
If I come back

I'm gonna blow on your dice before you throw your roll
I'm gonna send all your circuits into overload
I'm gonna spark your fuse then I'm gonna watch you explode
I'm gonna get out ya way so you could take your shot
And I'll bet your bottom dollar if that's all you got

I'm gonna break your silence and then I'm gonna break your mould

I wanna blow on your dice before you throw your roll
I wanna send all your circuits into overload
I wanna spark your fuse then I wanna watch you explode
I wanna get out ya way so you could take your shot
And I'll bet you your last dollar that it's all you got
I wanna break your silence
I wanna break your silence

I'm gonna break your silence
and then I'm gonna break your mould

  2. Yeah. Over the last couple days :) a songwriter friend in San Diego created a little circle where they give each other a word and a week to write a song inspired by the word. This week they went outside the circle and he chose me. My word was "better".
