Catch Your Reflection Looking Back At You

Sorry, I may have wondered into your dream
I didn't intend for you to scream

Sorry, I may have ventured into the depths of your mind
I didn't mean to be unkind

Trouble is; I now know what hides behind your eyes
I've seen your truth, I've seen your lies

I don't know why your gate remains open to me
I find your door too easily

You've changed how you look at yourself in the mirror
You use dark glasses to hide your eyes

I know you see something different, don't you?
Is it that someone has heard your most painful cries?

Or is it now that your reflection looks back at you
Through the eyes of me.
