I look in the mirror
I look in the mirror
To confirm my fear
I am the irrelevant man
With a pen in his hand
Needing to get out of here
Waiting to disappear

You know, you took everything away
I've got nothing left to give
There's nothing here for you
Nothing's left for me
I threw it all away
With all those lonely days
And all those sleepless nights
Was I really there
Or was it all a dream

I take a look in the mirror
What do I see,
The ugliest version of me
I am the unworthy man
With a switchblade in hand
Trying to understand

You know, you took everything away
I've got nothing left to give
There's nothing here for you
Nothing's left for me
I threw it all away
With all those lonely days
And all those sleepless nights
Was I really there
Or was it all a dream

I take a final look in the mirror
Now everything seems so clear
I am shattered inside
With no place to hide
I need to throw this away
Just to live another day

You know, you took everything away
I've got nothing left to give
There's nothing here for you
Nothing's left for me
I threw it all away
With all those lonely days
And all those sleepless nights
Was I really there
Or was it all a dream
