#-More suave, more laidback, less stressful

And this is how it goes down,
Me, forever stupid, always in the wrong, ultimately failing.
This is good, I know it is,
Yet it hurts so bad, cuts so deep.
Ain't that just how it is?
Slapping me, kicking me in the head, snapping me back.
I'm so thankful you did that,
But now, I just want to hide,
Hide the shame, hide from everything.
Why did I ever think so much?
How did I change so much, so quickly?

And this is how it goes down,
The mark I fell for last time was more suave, more laidback, less stressful.
Now it's all gone.
It's not gone, it's just suppressed,
Suppressed by my idiotic mind.
I've changed.
Where has my charm gone to?
Where is that X-factor now?
Where is the real Mark?

But this is how it comes up,
The old Mark will come back,
Right after I kill this new one.
I want my personality back,
As much as you do.
I just don't know where it's gone to,
Don't know how you've managed to make me become ugly.
Yes I do have expectations,
And do you not think that I want to stop being emotionally attached?
Of course, I'm being selfish,
Being the jerk that I am,
The sinner that I can never escape from.
Satan succeeded, I am sad to say,
But God has another plan for me,
And you played your part perfectly.
Just when I was so deluded that Satan must've been starting a party over his victory,
The Father made you come along and slap me,
Made you take that weapon and pierce me,
Right where it was needed,
To remove the tumour.

This is how it continues,
You will see me again,
That one you have been seeing
Is a product of the Devil.
Now, once again,
The glory will return.
With the veil now removed,
The light can shine again,
Soon.
Make yourself forget this episode,
Let yourself find me again, fresh.
Leave all this behind,
And let the real Mark sweep you off your feet,
One more time, all over again.

Soon. For now, let these wounds heal, let my tears dry up.
Soon. For now, let the darkness be vanquished, let the light slowly shine.

Thank you, for something so painfully good, so piercingly true.
