Mirror

I’m fading from the chokehold of that image

Clotheslined by the sermon to not age

The calm & collected is a sham for the chaos within.

Wearing fear like a mask, confusing it with respect,

Grasping at charred straws

Someone lost grip of the raging wildfire within,

Trying to be part of the scene

Chrs:

Mirror,

Our savior lives in the mirror

Iooks like me, feels like you, lies like us

Mirror

Our savior lives in the mirror

Iooks like me, feels like you, laughs like us

Vs 2:

Oh say, can't you see

Through those rose colored glasses?

Is that la migra for tree trimmers?

A singing birthday gram or a gang of ****?

Jesus, Ghandhi, where's that sage?

Someone hand me that Palo santo I bought from East Palo Alto

Unsure What to do when they are all gone

Prechrs:

So now it burns, burns, burns

And when You ring No one’s home

To take that call

So you turn, turn, turn

Pages of past lovers & they too have moved on from themselves to build that Wall

Chrs:

Mirror,

Our savior lives in the mirror

Iooks like me, feels like you, lies like us

Mirror

Our savior lives in the mirror

Iooks like me, feels like you, laughs like us
