Mirror Man
He looks at him and what he sees
is just a man of stolen dreams
and promises he couldnt keep
to himself worth anything
the other man stares back at him
and in his mind the fear sets in
that one day he will never be
the perfect man he wants to see
every day, he stares and stares
and hopes one day he won't be there
not gone forever, but just replaced
by a better man and better face
why can't he just accept the fate
he'll never change its far too late
too late to change the way he looks?
too late to change the paths he took?
too late to change the life he lives?
too late to change the love he gives
to everyone except one guy
theres only hatred in his eyes
every time he tries to see
the perfect man he wants to be
glaring man, i hate you so
how could you even stoop this low?
I hate that you look back at me
every time i'm feeling free
the way you are
just breaks my heart
i wish it ended at the start
the start of all the misery
the start of when i first would see
myself as nothing but a fee
to everyone that I would meet
maybe then, I wouldnt be
the mirror man that stares at me
