I looked past the diguise,
and saw the truth behind your eyes,
shivering on the bathroom floor,
you said you couldn't take it,
anymore.
I saw your truth,
and regaurded your proof,
thinking to myself,
how could you withstand,
this living hell?
You grimaced at the thought,
and put me in my place,
claiming you had everything,
all that was left,
you said,
was to to win the race.
I never saw,
the meaning in your safety,
the braclets and jewlery,
you wore to protect me.
I never understood,
what was going through head,
until the day you were afraid,
you'd wind up dead.
Listen to this song you said,
it speaks a truth so wise and brilliant,
that maybe you'll listen to the words,
I can't seem to say yet.
Speak your truth and close your eyes,
life is but a simple surprise,
twists and turns, down every ally,
maybe you can gain the courage,
to brag about your tally's.
Tell yourself what you will be,
and try to believe in me.
This all just a final test,
because you only get one chance at best.
I saw you shivering,
on your bathroom floor.
Covered in blood,
Collapsed in a mental war.
You can only make it so far you said,
before everything catches up to you,
and I realized who you were talking to.
Looking in the mirror,
what do you see?
Maybe I can finally,
Speak my truth to me.
