The Mirror

All that you are All that you see Everything about you Is reflected in me Reverse intentions See just who you are Into your soul To your deepest scar They call me the mirror I'm one who reflects All that you hide All you reject They call me the mirror You cannot break The hold of my hand, My grip, my embrace You cannot escape me For i am inside The very heart of you Where nothing can hide Open eyed I see Your darkest corners reached I am your shadow, I mimic what you breached They call me the mirror One who reflects All that you hide All you reject They call me the mirror You cannot break The hold of my hand My grip, my embrace I shine the light upon you As you so intently gaze Into the depths within you Setting your soul ablaze The hell inside you screaming The light it shines so bright The mirror always reflects What needs to be set right They call me the mirror One who reflects All that you hide All you reject They call me the mirror You cannot break The hold of my hand, my grip, my embrace Yes, they call me the mirror One day you will see All lain before you As you made it to be Reflections and truth You try to deny Open to me As i watch you cry Your days will be numbered Your nights filled with pain Your future so distant With false promises made. They call me the mirror For your truth i see As i show to the world Which you chose to be
