The One

Look at yourself in the mirror
Take a look deep inside

Your feelings are in there
Somewhere, deep
Deep.
Deep.

Look at your reflection
Take a look deep inside

Your thoughts are in there
Somewhere, gone
Gone.
Gone.

Look at your smile
Take a look deep inside

Your happiness is in there
Somewhere, dark
Dark.
Dark.

Look at your heart
Take a peak deep inside


Your love is in there
Somewhere, broken
Broken.
Broken.

Take a look at your reflection
The person peering out
The one you have forgotten
The one you must let out

You are in there somewhere, bright
Bright.
Bright.

Take a look at your reflection
Do you know what you have become?
The one that is inside you.
The one that is your home.
