Mirror Pain

I feel more lost, empty and incomplete as these pain boars deeper into my soul
When once upon a time, I used to feel whole…
More confused than ever before
My mind is spinning and my heart is still sore
I'm being pulled by the drain
Yet once again...

I'm confronted by the ghost in me
I look into the mirror and that's not me I see

How could you take my heart?
And throw it back to my face?
It's amazing how utterly cruel life turn into
It's as if my whole body has been snapped in two
My pillow holds all my tears
And my blanket is the only thing shielding me from my fears
I'm being pulled by the drain
And yet again

I'm confronted by the ghost in me
I look into the mirror and that's not me I see

Life's too short, is what we say,
So I've learned to take it head on day after day
Sometimes certain sadness has no ending
And I have to go on pretending...
A wall is present between me and happiness
I need to feel a sense of closure; nothing more or less
Because maybe then I would move on
And all this pain would be gone
I'm being pulled by the drain
Yet once again…

I'm confronted by the ghost in me
I look into the mirror and that's not me I see

I present a picture perfect of a lie...
But when you look into my eyes
That is where my true pain lies…

I'm afraid of looking in to the mirror
Because I know what I'm going to see
Is a wounded and helpless child
That's staring back at me….
