See There
It was in the rear room the rear room no smoke needed there
For the one that searches hearts knows what’s there
Taped the madrigal mask to the mirror with sign hanging there -
Looking into these eyes no mask nor mirrors needed there
Before didn’t get past the face hair and let’s not go there
Though a fiery flash or honest reflection I don’t have to be there -
It’s now and not then would not do it all again for there
It was a snare but now awaking to free life but death was there
Look to the friend within that has gave a hopeful end there
