Handmade Ego

I’ll be looking for the scent when it goes cold

I’ve been trying to beat the maze with a blindfold on

I’ve been foraging through mud and sticks

Searching for that power that don’t exist

Gather my strength and I’ll pull my weight

Run so hard I can only taste blood in my mouth

And i’ll do my work and I’ll break a sweat

Feel your nails drag across my chest

It's all worth the pain

Your *** and savage ways

So caught up, so caught up in my self indulgence

I tell myself that I'm not hopeless

I need you, I need you to struggle with me too

So wrapped up, so wrapped up in my handmade ego

Knock me down a peg and watch me wallow

Cos i need you, I need you to struggle with me too

I’ve been trying to find the path, keep me on track

Trying to solve the puzzle with my hands tied behind my back

I’ve been keeping my head in the sand

Won’t get involved in what I don’t understand

Sink my teeth into what is mine

I hunt and kill so you can wine and dine

It's all worth my time

Our bodies intertwine

So caught up, so caught up in my self indulgence

I tell myself that I'm not hopeless

I need you, I need you to struggle with me too

So wrapped up, so wrapped up in my handmade ego

Knock me down a peg and watch me wallow

Cos i need you, I need you to struggle with me too

So draw the line, it's there to cross

I think we’ll find, a cause we lost

So draw the line, it's there to cross

I think we’ll find, a cause we lost

A cause we lost

So caught up, so caught up in my self indulgence

I tell myself that I'm not hopeless

I need you, I need you to struggle with me too

So wrapped up, so wrapped up in my handmade ego

Knock me down a peg and watch me wallow

Cos i need you, I need you to struggle with me too
