Mirrors

I've spent years upon years
In a place I call home
Sifting through madness
Hoping to see something more
In the eyes, staring blindly back at me
And I've got demons that hide in places I know
But I choose not to face them
Because I've only been scorn
By the eyes, staring blindly back at me
But I don't give up hope
Cause damnit I believe
That there's something deep down
I can't see
And it's growing ever quietly

But then, I drink and I drink
Until there's nothing left
And I search for my answers in darkness that swells
In the eyes, staring blindly back at me
Staring blindly back at me

Cause I've spent years upon years
In a place all my own
And I've watched all my plants bloom
But've only felt thorns
From the eyes, staring blindly back at me
And I've got darkness that lingers
Deep in my bones
And I can't seem to hide it cause it always comes forth
In the eyes, staring blindly back at me
But I don't give up hope
Because damnit I believe
That there's something deep down I can't see
And it's growing ever quietly

But then, I drink and I drink
Until there's nothing left
And I search for my answers as darkness it swells
In the eyes, staring blindly back at me
And Oh, I've smoked and I've smoked
Until my lungs run sore
And I've begged for forgiveness
But've only been scorn
By the eyes, staring blindly back at me
Staring blindly back at me

Because I, oh, I just want to feel it...
I wanna feel the light. I wanna feel the hope for me
And I won't give up this fight, No
I'm gonna see that light. I'm gonna see the hope for me
Cause there's so much left for me
