Look into the mirror
Do I like my own reflection?
Not the way my face is looking
But the motives for my actions
I can con my friends and family
But the truth is ever-lurking
Gotta face myself forever
My decisions, my endeavors
In another world I could run away
Not worry, not care
Not bother, not dare
I could stand here and just stare
And when I'm interacting
Am I sincere, am I humble?
Do I take the time to reason
Lend a hand when someone stumbles
I can sing these songs, be happy
But the sadness always lingers
Find the passion that will feed me
Can I grab it with my fingers
In another world I could run away
Not worry, not care
Not bother, not dare
I could stand here and just stare
