Persephone: Reflection

Reflection

M: Hahn/Kraushofer


A look in the mirror
I see my face.
Is it.... is it really me?
Is this who I wanted to be?
Tear swollen eyes,
My make-up smudged.

I'm so sorry for showing my tears tonight.
I was a great actor for years.

Always pretending to be strong.
Hiding my grief deep inside.
Please, don't come near
And don't look at me.
'Cause no-one should see
the secrets I bear.

I'm so sorry, you saw me so weak tonight
but I can't fight back my tears.

A look in the mirror
I see my face.
Each time it cries,
The tears sharp as knives.
Makes scars all over me,
Is that what you wanted to see?

I'm so sorry for showing my tears tonight.
I was a great actor for years.
I'm so sorry, you saw me so weak tonight
but I can't fight back my tears.

When will I be able to forget?
When will my tears erase my memories?
Will my wounded soul stop bleeding?
Will I ever find redemption?
