In the mirror staring back at me
Mocking my reflection, weeping
Black thorns rise in a whirl as I inhale
Shredding my insides, screaming
Passion can't know the fire inside
Every step I take keeps falling
Tumbling down through the hearth
On and on the pyre keeps burning
All the time I see your face
Twirling upward in my mind
Stopping briefly to glare and freeze me
It crippled me once but never again
No violent struggle could release me
Now
All the way gone from everything
Still, everything you feel defines me
Frisky psyche twitches mesmerize
Rational thought and comfort on top of me
In all the image that disturbs me
All but your voice is terrorizing
I close my eyes and listen closely
This time you give what you want from me
