Maybe here,
Beaten and defeated by my own flaws,
Maybe here,
Pinned to the ground to the ugly replays,
Maybe… Maybe I can find myself.
Maybe now, lone, solitary…
Maybe like a rhinoceros, I am more blind to what stands near,
Too focused to what’s far when what I seek is just here.
Maybe I care too much, maybe I don’t
Maybe… Maybe I can find myself.

Maybe I can be myself more and overcome my ugly side,
Maybe in this loneliness I can hear my own breath.
Maybe this torture will erase all the evils I’ve done,
Maybe I’ll forget this pitiable self that everyone faults.
Then maybe… Maybe I can find myself.
Or could this be just a skin I have to shed?
It could be a dark cover hiding the light in me,
Or it could be that my thoughts have overcome me.
What more of me could it be?
Maybe I’ve heard too much about me.
Or maybe I’ve said too much, when you think I haven’t
Whether in the noise or in the silence…
Just maybe… Maybe I can find myself.
