This text is but a black hole
Of an incomprehensible grace
Like my own face within the glass
That pulls me to a desperate place
No single word exists
To illustrate this might
This feeling still persists
It never leaves my sight
Just wanting to understand
And hoping to feel whole again
I step right through the looking-glass
To see myself more plain
Everything's so beautiful here!
This can't be reality
And yet, it's standing right before me
And it will not let me be
Stepping through this hole of glass
I walk into the great unknown
Is there a sign to guide my path?
Or am I once again alone?
I keep on walking down this road
Unsure of what the dawn will bring
Still searching for that certain feeling
Though my heart lies in everything...
And on these highways of my mind
Where only sleepless nights I find
That slowly come to ruin my life
A life it's already stolen twice
Casting one final, backward glance
To the other side of the mirror
The time has come to mourn, perchance
This sad despair, and quell my terror
Inviting in the melancholy
Just like this haunting melody
To build a better life for me
Where my own heart can finally be
This void will always be right there
And happiness won't be enough
But still, this melody just smiles
And that alone will be enough
