A mirror I carry and ignorance I bury I witness the truth And walk in the light I discover, cover by cover Who I am beyond these covers I see with clarity And act out of normality I am the vision of infinity I am the image of signifacance I walk into a trance I see grace take a glance I find the I beyond what they see I see harmony between you and me I grasp a life whole I embrace the blaze shining They were finger-like linings Revealing the truth of what lies in I grab a pencil and write It creates a feeling alright I see the justice in all His might I view lies that can't be right I find my life waiting I am late as if I had been dead Only hiding from the truth, which many-a-men dread I then receive a conscious conscience conscientious of unconsciousness And I know that I am alive.

What is Life? What is to Live?
A mirror I carry and ignorance I bury I witness the truth And walk in the light I discover, cover by cover Who I am beyond these covers I see with clarity And act out of normality I am the vision of infinity I am the image of signifacance I walk into a trance I see grace take a glance I find the I beyond what they see I see harmony between you and me I grasp a life whole I embrace the blaze shining They were finger-like linings Revealing the truth of what lies in I grab a pencil and write It creates a feeling alright I see the justice in all His might I view lies that can't be right I find my life waiting I am late as if I had been dead Only hiding from the truth, which many-a-men dread I then receive a conscious conscience conscientious of unconsciousness And I know that I am alive.
