Deceptive Mirrors

Tainted I stand here ridden with decease
 Nail me with a vacant stare
 Prepare me for release
 Sow a scar upon my face
 Plans for my resurrection laid to waste

 Chorus: 

 It takes more than me 
 to heal the infected eye
 I’d drain me dry
 to heal the long lost beauty
 It takes more than me
 to seal the infected eye
 I’ll follow my fate
 to cut your tongue of hate

 Sink further down
 Let myself drown
 in my own self-deception
 Watch how the mirrors twist the truth
 Thoughts designed to destroy the average man
 Thoughts designed to erase our confidence
 Anger
 Frustration
 the message is now!
 These are all things that now pressure my soul

 I can see your face turning blue
 The fire in your eyes is fading too
 I can sense the fear running through your veins
 as the pictures turn to red
