If they asked me whether Lex is just a character I couldn’t say
Elements of truth exaggerated maybe who’s to say
Roots that only users aggregated could communicate
Introducing, an Alter Ego for our new today
I’m the kind like layers in a pie like Dr. Horrible said
I’m the top and bottom layers waging war in my head
With the center maintaining level that’s the one in my bed
And at the store and with my parents, not the one that you’ve met
Unless you’ve seen me in action, and that’s as real as the other
That’s the one that I keep at a distance still from my mother
Though I discovered it quite young, hiding it under covers
I’m finally old enough to be flying my ugly colors
That’s the one you watch and listen to, it’s critical to see
Both and all of them are aspects that are integral to me
I’m not a switch you flip on and off, it isn’t so simple
My spirits live in a body they wish would split down the middle
The part of me
You see
Is not the one
True me
Oh all the things
We know
I’ll never let
Me go
The part of me
You see
Is not the one
True me
Oh all the things
We know
I’ll never let
Me go
My alter ego
If I could make a clone to be the nice and boring me
I would send her off to lead a life of normalcy
Schemes they have in store for me she’d see to them accordingly
As making all my family happy is her priority
Normally with clones, people seek to do some sordid things
Like skydive, do a bunch of drugs, maybe f*ck your clone, that sorta thing
Maybe forcing them all to be organ donors, sustaining you as an immortal being
If you’re wondering “what shouldn’t we do to clones?” well I think I just answered rhetorically
Is it morally right to make a clone to leave me alone
And have a stable job and home and maybe kids of her own
A happy daughter whose parents will make their happiness known
About her life, her spouse, her choices, and the path that she chose
And they’d be happy, I’d be happy they can have what I want them to
Send my love with Alter Alex while I do what I wanna do
Cause I wiped her memory clean she’ll never know her creator
Though if she did
She’d be resentful of
The person who made her
The part of me
You see
Is not the one
True me
Oh all the things
We know
I’ll never let
Me go
The part of me
You see
Is not the one
True me
Oh all the things
We know
I’ll never let
Me go
My alter ego
That old performer duality, I embody it
I got the me that I put up before an audience
Then I've got the version of me that I share with parents and partners
But even that me is just another suit of armor
If the average bear is slipping in and out of disguises
Then I wear a mask under a balaclava tucked inside of
A motorcycle helmet in a block of ice frozen
In a barrel in concrete buried beneath the ocean
On stage I posture like I'm Darth Vader and make noise
In real life I'm more like Anakin but Jake Lloyd
Giving the stiffest delivery of a shittily written script
Disappointing the critics then disappearing to quit and split
Back to my secret lair protected by a dozen walls
With egos inside of egos nested like Russian dolls
So save your coin toss 'cause it won't reveal a thing
It's best to pick a card and guess which one of me that I'll bring
The part of me
You see
Is not the one
True me
Oh all the things
We know
I’ll never let
Me go
The part of me
You see
Is not the one
True me
Oh all the things
We know
I’ll never let
Me go
My alter ego
