lyrics

I didn’t come this far to quit
But man these mirrors, they don’t forget
Well I got intentions twisted backward in the end
Though I am certain they were perfect to begin
I tell myself it’s just a phase, I tell myself
‘Boy, will you leave it?’
This is terrible - no mother to save us
We’re just like animals led astray
Tests with riddles oh no other can save us
We’re naive animals led astray
So it comes to this, a reckoning
And nowhere to hide - ‘I’ is all-seeing
Guides you through the dark like an unseen hand
Different in the end, different to begin
Can you honestly promise me that this is just a phase?
I see but I just cannot pretend
But go on, you pretend
This is not the sum of me
And all that I have struggled to create
Let it be man
It’s just the mirror, not me
Yes it is
