Nothing told me the truth Not the family Not the friends Just the mirror in my room The one in a trance It kept me awake As I stared My eyes felt heavy The lies I never felt I see the truth now As clear as day It was me I needed truth from The me that never came It screamed at me to talk That me in front of me I see me in a mirror It's asking for me It wants to hear the words I wish I could have said them And over time I did For the words I never spoke We're the words from within
