Contemplating what I should do next, or even if I was wrong
I've got to clear my head so I'll write the lyrics for a music-less song
It's all circling inside my head and I'm lost as to what I should do
Getting dizzy from the thought of it being just me, I'm afraid to lose
[Break]
Constant theatrics surround me, (tell me what is the truth?)
Is this the way it's supposed to be, (what am I turning into?)
Another joke, another spoof, another laugh-line, 'nother turn-table
Spinning different records hoping one is finally able
(Able to redeem me)
[Chorus]
Tell me
What is real anymore
Believe me
I still don't know where I am
I've lost some faith, wow, and I think I'm lost now
I need a pick-me-up and I don't want to do this alone
(i don't wanna do...)
This is me
I'm the closest to my core as you can get now
Believe me
I'm trying to get this off my chest now, but how
Can I defeat what I can't see, standing right in front of me
[End Chorus]
As I stare into this mirror
As I stare into this mirror
I face fear.
Anticipating a smile from my shadow, it's refusing to even open it's eyes
I've got to get myself out of this room and find my way back outside
Childhood of confusion, teenage years of hurt, and now I get to be an... adult?
I don't know how I got here but I wonder if this feeling of being lost is all my ... fault.
[Break]
I know I don't have the most gorgeous face but I run at an alarming pace
It's so damn hard to stop and think that I may have already lost this race
I'm paranoid, I'm out of control, I'm out of touch, and I just don't know
How can I dig out of this hole is there anyplace left for me to go
(go inside of my head)
[Chorus]
As I stare into this mirror
I don't know if I can hold on anymore
And as I stare into this mirror
I'm lost, don't know if I can.. anymore..
I look into the glass
I stare into my eyes and see the past
And when I stare into this mirror
I face fear
Please tell me what you think, and be honest! ^_^ I'm not scared of criticism, I love it!

Promise ... sing
Hovering on the borderline between poetry and prose the hope "for Anticipating a smile from my shadow, it's refusing to even open it's eyes" sums up the horns of the dilemma ... poetry interweaves with lyrics naturally without needing some metaphorical hole either to dig out of or escape to or from ...
The past is the doorway towards a future offering infinite opportunities -
wow this was amazing and wow such emotion you did such a good job and it flow so well and it would be great with some music or something even tho it is a music less song
