Man In the Mirror

Hating daily living Can't stand the sound of my name Since you've left nothing feels the same Feel like I'm drowning I'm losing it again Because I can feel you in every place we've been Thought it was a curse The situation I find myself in Mistakes I've made, where do I begin Lost deep inside myself The cost of loving you was more than I planned Using these hours at work like a gun in my hand If I see you again Please believe the lies that I spin I'll appear much better than the hell I've been living in It's been so long it all seems like a dream Fighting to remember your taste and smell I've turned this life into 10x10 cell I can see you leaving It's burned into my tortured head Some days i'd be better off dead Let's pick any old road and start again Wish I was who I appear I can't stand the man in the mirror
