they said
you gotta learn to see yourself
as an object
if you're ever gonna let go
of the things you were before

and so I
just stand in front of the mirror
and cut away
at the things I see
until the person in the glass
just isn't me anymore

it's 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 more to go
keep your eyes on the goal

and you gotta
sell yourself to the new friends
you are making
and let them down all the time
