When I look into the mirror And I stare into my eyes Is it me I really see? Or just a man in a disguise The mirror shows my reflection The way I look physically But it cannot show to you The state I am in spiritually The mirror it cannot reflect The heaviness of my heart Or the pain it feels within As if pierced by a sharpened dart The mirror does not reveal to you The sadness that abides within Or the absence of joy that did exist Will I find it ever again? The mirror is a great deceiver For it shows only the outer shell Where all seems as it should While hiding the inner hell

The Mirror Decieves
When I look into the mirror And I stare into my eyes Is it me I really see? Or just a man in a disguise The mirror shows my reflection The way I look physically But it cannot show to you The state I am in spiritually The mirror it cannot reflect The heaviness of my heart Or the pain it feels within As if pierced by a sharpened dart The mirror does not reveal to you The sadness that abides within Or the absence of joy that did exist Will I find it ever again? The mirror is a great deceiver For it shows only the outer shell Where all seems as it should While hiding the inner hell
