Looking Glass

All I ever wanted was the gift of new sight
But when the scales fell from my eyes
All I felt was more blind
Numb to the vision
Blind to the pain
My looking glass is in metaxis all is in vain

All I ever wanted was to fight and look inside
But every time I try I'm only dealing out more lies
Strangers try to show me
My body tries to warn me
My looking glass is all that's left and even that must die

Otherwise overpassed my muffled voice becomes extant
Deficient of empathy my calloused heart needs to breathe
Yet suspended in time we may find it intrinsic
How the heartbreak from love writes in itself a new lyric
Though buried by time her cries I still hear
Past paranoia to the precipice of fear

Though buried by time her cries I still hear
Though buried by time her cries I still hear
