Face in Your Mirror
My scarred face inside your mirror Bears no resemblance to the man Who posed before your needy eyes When I thought you loved me
I have become an erasure My freedom held in your rejection I give you my compassion And return to my reflection
Then I raise your silver needle Shifting my visage, folding its layers Stitching flesh to bone that crumbles Overlapping discarded pain
Metaphysical incantation Self-creation with no past Alchemy of baser matter Forgetfulness of what I was We are born for pain like this Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com It makes a human know his flesh Behind the self who once loved you I am an altogether different man
I hide behind the mask I made And lose myself in your searing stare Are we ever as we appear When looking through a lover's mirror?
Take your tears and numb my flesh To the pain of re-emerging Where once I was filled with wanting Now I crave freedom from yearning
My reflection on the surface Of this distorted lover's mirror Traces the lines of my trembling scalpel
