Look in the mirror, what do you see inside?
All you could be or all that you left behind?
I’m looking deeper, to all the little things
The mountain’s steeper than I’m remembering
Bending or breaking, giving or taking
Trying to prove that I’ve grown
Kicking and screaming, wish I was dreaming
Tell me I’m not alone
(Alone!)
In my reflection I only see mistakes
Was I ambitious or just another fake?
What I’m regretting begins to take its toll
I’m not forgetting the day I sold my soul
(The day I sold my soul!)
Bending or breaking, giving or taking
Trying to prove that I’ve grown
Kicking and screaming, wish I was dreaming
Tell me I’m not alone
So when you’re telling me, that there’s no going back
I’ve got this feeling in my soul that’s like a heart attack
And when you’re telling me, that I can never change
I’ll take those words and burn them down with every fucking day
And when you’re crying, for what you thought you knew
Now I can hold your hand but I can never carry you
Don’t go!
I need to know you’ll stay
Without your voice inside my head, I fade to gray
I know!
I walk a lonely path
When I lose sight of you I only ever want you back
Bending or breaking, giving or taking
Trying to prove that I’ve grown
Kicking and screaming, wish I was dreaming
Tell me I’m not alone
(Alone!)
