The Prophet lyrics

I've already told you I'm not a reflection
So stop using me as a mirror for yourself
You must really hate yourself

How many times have I proved I'm not here to threaten?
The demon you mean to kill is in yourself
But you're attacking someone else

You need to believe we are lost without your wisdom
But you can't feel who is caught up in the middle

You say what's good for all, but what's "good" for you?
You compare me to a drug, well, I can do that to you
You say it's for him and you know it's for you
You can't stand to see someone as wanted as you
From his eyes that are tired from this bickering
I'd kill myself now if that tiger could sing
But you're speaking for him and I don't live for you
You can dodge all you want, then claim I'm dodging you

But I've already told you I'm not a reflection
So stop using me as a mirror for yourself
You must really hate yourself

No, this is not the first time I've dealt with projection
The girl I loved struck me a crippled spell
But couldn't see the parallels
