My Ego
From within hidden darkness
Lost in forgotten spaces
In out of the way places
It calls to me
To take my place
Amidst the hallowed halls
Of saints and sinners
Saviors and slayers
But I cover my ears
Scream at the top of my lungs
Fight and rebel
Against the voices
Calling out to me
Resist and refuse
To become as they
To give in to the urge
From long days
Of struggle and strife
Of abusive mistreatment
The shadow of a man
That I admit to be
Finds urban legend strength
And beats back the
Siren songs of my ego.
