Show me a mirror–

The bearer of a lifetime of scars.

A lone survivor

A diver we swam past the sharks, and snatched all the pearls.

Was i the one holding back?

Were you trying to trust

Through all the mess, filled with regrets?

In a world void of clarity

We were fighting for peace, with sense of deceit.

Where can we get away?

There’s no place to leave, there’s no place to be but here–

Where we have grown, where I have seen, where we are together, where we are breathing.

Did i show in the mirror?

Someone dear, or a stranger you knew?

The judgements are clear

Or you need, a bit more of time or a bit of sanity.

Was i the one holding back?

Were you trying to trust

Through all the mess, filled with regrets?

In a world void of clarity

We were fighting for peace, with sense of deceit.

Where can we get away?

There’s no place to leave, there’s no place to be but here–

Where we have grown, where I have seen, where we are together, where we will breathe.

Time left no resentment

Nor a feeling of bitterness

Grudges that i had harboured

Have gone away, have gone away.

In a world void of clarity

We were fighting for peace, with sense of deceit.

Where can we get away?

There’s no place to leave, there’s no place to be but here–

Where we have grown, where I have seen, where we are together, where we are breathing.
