Introspective about the madness that allows you stay sane.
In the light the surface reflects
    an image of the same

Inside there swirls the mists

    the helix of the pain

Dark miror before me

    I dare not look inside

Dark mirror before me

    to show me what I hide

Not lost, burried, too risky

    a liability

Not forgotten, shadowed

    murky memory

I call out within

    I shattered for attention

I remained unmoved, uncrying

    broken, bleeding, dying

Dark mirror, truth, companion

    sing my sin to me

Dark mirror, forsaken, emotion

    make me real again
