Set It Straight
Ocean breezes
Torrent waves
Fields of wildflowers
Blown away
Heart of gold
Peace of mind
But part of you left behind
Alone in a world savaged by fear
Now inked away to make it here
To be the goddess so unaware
You're still gazing into a broken mirror
Clouded by fear and liquid hate
She forced you there
She set you straight
To see yourself through bleary eyes
Through those of an unsatisfied life
But now you've come so far
With one last step to take
Rivet the mirror
Set it straight
