Broken Mirror

A piece of me in your eyes Reminds me of what's forgotten I need to get closer to the fire And feel my own reflection A piece of me needs to die A seed of the fatal kind No roots to grow and thrive Some things weren't meant to stay alive Aborted while still in mind You gave me a sword to pierce the lie Serrated edge for the demon inside A moment I'm torn between two tides But all I need, I bear inside Fear, is a self-destructing fire That burns what's dead and dry Tears clean the wound that's left behind When a shadow is forced to enter light You gave me a sword to pierce the lie Serrated edge for the demon inside A moment I'm torn between two tides But all I need, I bear inside Broken mirror beauty divides Though it's an illusion It can cut like a knife Don't try to give me What I think I desire It's mine to find You gave me a sword to pierce the lie Serrated edge for the demon inside A moment I'm torn between two tides But all I need, I bear inside
