Dichotomy Of I and Me

Where I stand
Where I want to be
Splits wide open
The dichotomy
Of I and Me

Pop the champagne
With the cork bruising my face
Cheers to the day
You'd want to remember
And I'd want forget

Where I stand
Where I want to be
Splits wide open
The dichotomy of I and Me

A toothless tiger
A chuckle worthy threat
Is what I am now at best
The calm surface marches steadily to kiss its fate
Whilst the violent undertow for its redemption awaits
