I'm sitting in the room full of mirrors,
Trying to find the real you;
You're everywhere I turn,
But the illusions aren't true.

There's only one of you,
And this I know;
Every magnified imagine of you
Has me spinning, to and 'fro.

I'm in a house of mirrors
Just trying to sort this out;
I'm trying to identify which is the real you
So that I don't live with any doubt

Of who you really are,
And what you believe in, what you stand for-
The 100 extra images of you
Leave me wanting to find not you, but the door.

The house of mirror never led me
To finding the real you;
I eventually just saw my own reflection,
And from there on I knew-

I projected all of my problems
Onto your reflection rather than my own;
I'm always flawed to my core,
So around the house of mirrors, I'll roam,

Consistently surrounded by
Me, myself and I;
I've come to find
She's the only one who stays by my side.

I thought maybe for once
That the problem wasn't me,
Though I was proved wrong
Because it'll refer back to what I see

When I'm in a house of mirrors,
Trying to find your demise
And I only see myself in the end-
This came as no surprise.

The house of mirrors
Became my home,
And there's always a chance to see myself,
Though I'd rather just be left alone.
Sometimes I think my relationships are flawed because of the other person, but it's usually me stressing out and over thinking. This is what this is about, realizing you're the one with the problem. I have a hard time letting things flow and go as they please, I struggled with random bouts of sadness and it's here again.
