Reflections

I'm in a spiral of thoughts,
The past, the pain, it all comes back
I see, but now I see more,
Even feel their side of this tale
I realise their faith,
No one's to blame, two sides

My life's a mirror that no one sees
If I could show them my own vision of this world
My life's a mirror I need them to see,
So they would open up to me and fill up my emptiness

I still really try to feel
A strange experience to enter the other side
I feel there's so much we never said
It's all misunderstood, the emotions that we had

My life's a mirror that no one sees,
If I could show them my own vision of this world
My life's a mirror I need them to see

[Voice in the back of her head]:

Maybe if you would have the guts to open up
Maybe the world would do the same
Maybe, maybe...

You can still be a part of this world,
Still be the queen of the ball
Not of your own empty paradise
Where no one sees the beauty inside

Face the world outside my safe shell
I must face reality for once
I've never felt the passion of a warm life
Games, TV, I know they're not real,
They're just a substitute

This could mean the breaking point
In these three lives
The moment of insight
That could change their misfortune

Let this help be enough to make it
Let this be stronger than pain,
The ancient wall between love and the comprehension
That will lead to the inner forgiveness

A reflection outside the circle of your life is all you should seek
