Baate - A Second Voice In My Head

"You're awake, that's good
You two were pretty badly beaten in that fight
We just had to patch you both up"

Both of us? There's one of us
Don't mess me up, I'm one and there are none
Something's up, I don't feel right
It's almost like there's a second mind
Who wants to fight, and take a life
This ain't right, but I'm alright
That's a lie, I can't say I'm fine
But why? I can't say, but I
"I bet you're confused, John
I said there were two of y'all
But there's only one of you
But in your brain, there are two"
"What?"
"You've been diagnosed with multiple personality disorder
I know you're not a murderer, not a monster
That's the other one inside you"
No, there is no one, I am alone
But I'm not dumb, I'm not my own
I may go and roam, but never run
"How?"
"You know when you lose control
Prison, court, and Fred's home
You didn't mean what you did
There's a villain inside your head
He did it, and now we believe
He can come out, and be more frequent
All because of the sedative
I've spoken to him, he knows your existence
Now you know his"
Wait, you've been talking to him
While I couldn't fathom his existence
He is illusive, did I lose it
When was this started
Thought I was harmless
Did some killings, thought I would harness
Things that are demonic, evil prowess
In my mind, I am shouting
Was this started with the rejection
Thinking, lethal injection
My perception, I want to leave it
Can I take some medication, get rid of him
Take a prescription, then I'm sane
"I'll leave you to meet him"

Doctor's leaving
Now I'm screaming
Looking terrified
Want to be escaping
Mind is racing
Don't want to talk with him
Now I know who he is
He's the toxic villain
My evil twin
He is murderous
Wants to take everything
I have and gives nothing
Looking, trying to find a knife
Or a weakness, get myself untied
I want to run away start a new life
Either that or take my life
Suicide, deep into the night
No knight can save me, the end is nigh
But I don't mind, I can fly high
Just me, no one else in my mind
Looking at my binds, next to my lines
Looking loose, so my arm slides
One arm free, time to kill a freak
Now I reach, finger on the blade
Then I heard it, worse than a door opening
A second voice in my head
He said, "Hey"

"You"
"Yeah, its me, I'm not a freak
I want to be free, just like thee
I can help, I know what you need"
"I don't need a thing
You ruined me"
"No, I made you free
Now I can get you what you seek
All you need is to help me
And you will have everything"
"Nothing, is what I need
Anything from you, I don't seek
I want you to get away from me
You're the reason they're all dead
I watched you kill, you're the enemy
I thought I did it, I want you out of my head"
"Nope, I'm here, it's you and me
As it's always been
I made you free, killed her to give you what you need
Then you went and fleed
Fred knew and would have ruined you
So I killed him too"
"There's so much pain that you put me though
Killing Fred, maybe you were right
But there should have been a different way for you
What you did do, made it so everyone wanted my life
I had to go and hide, all I did was lie and cry
You ruined my life"
"Maybe you're right, but I still tried to save your life
That counts for something, right
Help me leave, we can roam the streets
Be free, isn't that everything you want to be"
