Mirror Mirror

Verse 1:
Splash ya face, with the hot water that pours down
Head held low, as you reach for the towel
Lights off, Faucet still on, after ya done drowned ya own
Air dry all of ya sorrows, in case you've hit a new low
It's like batteling your twin, and goin' toe to toe
blow for blow, bet yall didn't know
Look up, then look down
All I can muster up is a frown
I see disgust in your fierce eyes
No pain hidden in my pierced pride
Blemishes emphasize the word to the wise
I see the truth in your lies...

Chorus:
Mirror on the wall, here we are again
Through my rise and fall
You've been my only friend
You told me that they can't understand the man I am
So why are we here talkin' to each other again

Verse 2:
Look better in the broken glass
Wanna hit? Nah, think i'll take a pass
Coke lines, do the walk of shame
See all the scars that remain?
Rememberin' all the blood stains...
All I see are tainted broken veins,
Vessels shattered, past is present as it aids,
Hear the shingles tappin', it's outside rain
Sittin' in the dark, hear the violins playin'
Decanter of Disarrano and tears, Cry N' Gin faded

Chorus:
Mirror on the wall, here we are again
Through my rise and fall
You've been my only friend
You told me that they can't understand the man I am
So why are we here talkin' to each other again
 
Verse 3:
You're the only thing that sees me,
On the darkest days, the only thing that frees me,
You see the true colors of my facade
Hear me curse the heavens, as I deny the gods
Stripped naked, you accept my vulgarity
You hear my screams of sincerity
You don't judge battered knuckles, you don't glare-at-me
Scar tissue beneath the skin marks a rarity
You're the only thing ill look directly in the eyes
Always wake up with a new surprise
Glimpse into my dreams, reveals the night terrors
Guess im starrin' at the man in the...

Outro:
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Here we are again
Through my rise and fall
You've been my only friend
