Why do I keep letting my anger lead me into meaningless conflicts? Where will I find the magic solution that returns things to place? I just wanted normal things, peaceful days with nothing in mind; a lost time that shimmers in memories that seem so faded today I look inside of a world in the mirror that shows all our wishes colliding in conflict and I wish that I had more strength to prevail in this fight that I swore I would end If only I could take back those hateful things I said while I wished I could turn into someone you would cherish behind my shattered mask glued in place with countless lies, I laugh because it’s too late to wish things were different There’s no one else to blame, I run forth with open eyes in hopes that I’ll see someone worth knowing in the mirror Just close your eyes and drift off to sleep so we won’t have to say goodbye tomorrow Someone said that values depend on seeing the world from below so crawl like reptiles in the dirt; another day in the mirror Why do I feel a hunger for a good reason to live in a world that can’t find a source of goodness or slivers of hope? Keep me from falling down I knew what I had to give up when I started this race to outrun my unwelcome reflection but I wasn’t ready to choose who would suffer while paying the price for my fight If only I could change what I did while I was blinded by the thought of finally deserving to be happy Just let me sit alone, I know where I made mistakes, although I fear it’s too soon to call this the ending I only see my own small reflection alone in the mirror remembering how I would plan for a future that turned out to only exist in the world that’s untouched by my side of the glass If only I could take back the hurtful things I said while I tried to ignore being crushed by fear of failing Behind that shattered glass lies a world beyond my reach farewell to all the dreams left behind in a memory There’s nowhere else to run, here’s where I make my last stand I hope you’ll see a soul that’s worth saving in the mirror Just close your eyes and drift off to sleep so we won’t have to say goodbye tomorrow
