The Mirror Lies

Описание: You are your worst enemy, take care of yourself and don't forget to love yourself no matter what the voices say.

lyrics

Verse 1
In the corner of my silent room
Where the candlelight barely moves
Hangs a glass of polished doom
Framed in black and bruised

It waits for me like it always does
Patient as a wound
Breathing fog against my skin
Humming out of tune

Pre-Chorus
I know I shouldn’t look again
But I step into its view
And there you are — the softer voice
That sounds almost like truth

Chorus
Oh silver tongue behind the shine
Why do you know my weakest lines?
You trace the cracks beneath my skin
And call them who I’ve always been
You turn my fear into a face
And say I’ll never change
Your whisper feels too close to mine
And I believe the lies

Verse 2
You show me all the things I’m not
The courage that I lack
Every chance I ever lost
Every step I can’t take back

You stretch my flaws until they fill
The entire frame of me
And shrink my light to something small
Too small for eyes to see

Pre-Chorus
You speak in almost gentle tones
Like you’re trying to protect
But every word you breathe into me
Is another form of wreck

Chorus
Oh silver tongue behind the shine
You memorize my fragile mind
You make a prison out of doubt
And build the walls from inside out
You turn my hope to smoke and haze
Then blame me for the gray
Your whisper sounds too much like mine
And I believe the lies

Bridge
But mirrors only catch the light
They cannot make it burn
And glass can only twist a face
If I forget to turn

You are only silver skin
You are not my bones
You are only borrowed voice
Not the truth I own

Final Chorus
Oh silver tongue behind the shine
You do not get to define
The worth within this fractured frame
Or carve your doubt into my name
You fed on fear I held inside
But I am more than what you hide
Your whisper fades, it’s out of time
I won’t believe the lies

Outro
The mirror’s just a piece of glass
And I am more than what it asks
