Change (or lack thereof)
Tonight, I find the mirror lying to me
So many things, that I didn't expect to see
I don't know what's worse, the darkness under my eyes
Or that within them, speaking of a silent sacrifice
I've always done what I needed to, never more
What I wanted never had never failed me before
But tonight, my wants exceed my needs
As I find myself consumed with greed
Maybe that is why I cannot recognize myself now?
Maybe I'm no longer the same, maybe I changed somehow
But how do you tell the world, that you're not the old you?
When you don't even know, what you're becoming into?
The past and the future me, like two worlds collide
While the present me looks for a place to hide
And so it is lost in the mirror, lost like a maze
Lost forever, until the mask becomes a face
