about
Confronting a tortured soul consumed by fear of itself, Ego is a dynamic tune that delivers a fist-clenching riff before exploding into heavy chorus. Its brooding verses share with the listener a glimpse of intense autophobia, an anecdote that is testament to the band’s robust presence on a range of issues.

lyrics
Holds me tight, her grip’s all I can feel
Seeps through my dreams, I can’t tell what is real
Why can’t you just set me free, I’m begging
Take this voice from me
She’s in my head again
Twisting words and sense she bends
Plunged into my soul
Washed away my pure with cold
Tore out my heart, my love, my empathy
Left me just with lust and insecurity
Holds me tight, her grip’s all I can feel
Seeps through my dreams, I can’t tell what is real
Why can’t you just set me free, I’m begging
Take this voice from me
Crept her way into my mind
Left no place for me to hide
Darkest truths untold
Dreaming of losing control
I can’t hold back what’s beneath the skin
She will break out and torture everything
Holds me tight, her grip’s all I can feel
Seeps through my dreams, I can’t tell what is real
Why can’t you just set me free, I’m begging
Take this voice from me
You did it to yourself
Forgot your mental health
You did it to yourself
Forgot your mental health
You did it to yourself
Forgot your mental health
You did it to yourself
Forgot your mental health
