The Mirror 05:21
I'm here when everything's gone I'll keep you safe from the storm And when you need to be strong I'll give it structure and form I've seen that face I've been that place with you before I'll care if nobody cares I'll talk if that's what you need And when it's too much to bear And when we're both on our knees I've seen that face in the mirror I've been that place myself before This life could be enough for you Open up, open up Look at me, just look at me All of this, take all of it Stay with us, stay with me You need to find a way home I'm just clearing a path It's hard to walk on your own I know the pain that you have I've seen that face You don't need space to be alone This life could be enough for you Open up, open up Look at me, just look at me All of this, take all of it Stay with us, stay with me You need to find a way home I've seen that face in the mirror

You can do it It's just mind over matter You've been through it You know that it get better Feeling your way through it Never lose control Nothing is for certain So bite the hand you hold When strangers make a promise When friends hold out a hand Ask yourself their reasons Or make another plan You can't hold it It's like sand through your fingers You control it But the sadness always lingers Feeling your way through it Never lose control Nothing is for certain So bite the hand you hold When strangers make a promise When friends hold out a hand Ask yourself their reasons Or make another plan What you left to make this journey Who you had to leave behind A burden shared is lighter surely? A story told is left behind Mind over matter When strangers make a promise When friends hold out a hand Ask yourself their reasons Or make another plan

You do what you want It's never enough to pretend You can't be content with all that we've done You do what you want I am the sense Pulling you back from the end game You can't be content with all that we've done You do what you want It's never enough to pretend You take take what you want There's never enough to defend You always resent the kindnesses done You'll never believe that two isn't one You take what you want You are your own fear Driving you back from the cliff ledge You are your own fear Sliding your hands across the knife edge You are your own fear Driving you back from the cliff ledge You are your own fear Sliding your hands across the knife edge You do what you want It's never enough to pretend You can't be content with all that we've done You do what you want I am the sense Pulling you back from the end game You always resent the kindnesses done You'll never believe that two isn't one You can't be content with all that we've done You do what you want It's never enough to pretend
