Mirror

My love for you will never die
It causes me to rot inside
I sit around and wait for an answer
Want festers – it grows like a cancer

All my life I've walked alone
An empty strength; the seeds were sown
Feelings long dormant now become active
Heart begins burning – eaten by acids

Upon myself I place the debt
Upon myself I place the debt

Did this really happen or am I mistaken?
I walked next to you and you seemed shaken?
A tangible feeling radiated from you?
Could it be – you hurt inside too?

I find it hard to look into your eyes
This is a shame, but not a surprise
We're both self-conscious: now it's clearer
Looking at you is like looking in the mirror

Upon myself I place the debt
Upon myself I place the debt
