The Mirror

Were we both reborn
And were we born at all
It's just another day to recall
And all the lessons that we learn,
Will they, bring peace or will they bring more sorrow
Yet how can I remain so cynical
And leave these cold words around?
And will they show what we're made of,
When the darkness falls
When will it fall
And where will we arrive?

So turn your sleeves and put on your make up
Save your sleep and tomorrow we'll turn these high tides around
And all the debts we've sired,
They'll be gone

Or we could leave this moment,
We could overcome it
We'll get a little further, we'll get a little further
And if the language comes to a suicide letter
I'll take another stone to your sharpened razor
Do you believe the darkness will fall
And are we both reformed
Whether or not we can see the sunlight
And though I can't be sure
I know that people don't end their lives in the sky.

It's mythological, mysterious to be sure
Somehow we must forget the pain we've suffered in this life
