Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Bathroom light, a sterile glow
Face reflected, nowhere to go
Eyes meet eyes, a searching gaze
Beyond the mask, a mental maze
Wrinkles etched, a story told
Laughter lines, and battles bold
Is this me, the soul within
Or just the shell where life begins?
(Verse 2)
Lips purse tight, a silent plea
To unlock the secrets hidden deep
The weight of choices, burdens borne
Etched upon this face so worn
Can I see past the surface sheen
To the fire that burns, unseen?
A flicker of hope, a spark ignites
A yearning for the hidden lights
(Verse 3)
Breath fogs the glass, a fleeting shroud
Revealing strength, both weak and proud
The dance of shadows, a fleeting play
Of dreams pursued and cast away
But in the depths, a steady beat
A rhythm strong, can't be erased, can't be beat
The will to rise, the will to fight
To claim the future, bathed in light
(Chorus)
This reflection, a battleground
Where fears and triumphs can be found
Staring back, a truth untold
A chance to rewrite, to grow old
Not just a face, a vessel frail
But the captain of this life's long sail
So I'll break the mirror, piece by piece
Embrace the journey, find inner peace
(Verse 4)
Eyes well up, a tear escapes
A memory surfaces, childhood shapes
A joyful laugh, a whispered word
Of dreams once chased, a forgotten bird
But in the blur, a hand appears
Wipes the tear, dispelling fears
An inner voice, a gentle guide
"The past is prologue, step inside"
(Bridge)
The mirror shimmers, reality bends
A kaleidoscope, where time suspends
Childhood fears and future plans
Dance in a waltz, across the sands
Is this madness, a fractured mind?
Or a deeper truth, I'm yet to find?
The reflection shimmers, then fades to black
Leaving a question, on the lonely track
(Verse 5)
But in the darkness, a pinpoint light
A spark of courage, piercing the night
I close my eyes, and breathe it in
The strength to rise, to start again
No longer a prisoner of what I see
But a sculptor, shaping who I'll be
The mirror holds no power now
For the truest reflection, lies somehow
(Outro)
Deep within, a wellspring waits
Of love, of hope, a heart that creates
This is me, a constant fight
Embracing the darkness, reaching for the light
(Verse 5)
But in the darkness, a pinpoint light
A spark of courage, piercing the night
I close my eyes, and breathe it in
The strength to rise, to start again
No longer a prisoner of what I see
But a sculptor, shaping who I'll be
The mirror holds no power now
For the truest reflection, lies somehow
(Outro)
Deep within, a wellspring waits
Of love, of hope, a heart that creates
This is me, a constant fight
Embracing the darkness, reaching for the light
