King Midas

In This Mirror

In this mirror
A timid reflection gazes
Long nights and quick times
Memories patched in hazes

Mistakes without reason
Are lining on my face
I'm everyone's let down
A giant disgrace

A disappointment since birth
These demons so haunting
Fighting transgressions
A task so undaunting

Sometimes the word no
Isn't as good as giving in
A fast fix to ones problems
Is as good as living them

Still Happy

Go ahead and break my heart
It won’t mend, but you’ll still be happy
Tear it out and rip it apart
It will sting, but it will make you happy

Make this hurt, and make me cry
All these tears will be to make you happy
On the inside I’ve already died
Died for love, to make you happy

Lie to me, you know the truth
I’ll believe to make you happy
Bury me in an abandoned tomb
I’ll lay and waste, but you’ll be happy

I don’t know what to say anymore
My words just can’t express how I feel
I don’t know what to do anymore
I can’t find a remedy; my wounds just will not heal

Paper Heroes

Criminals are worshiped
In Godlike proportions
For the distance they can hit a ball
Or the sounds of their distortion

While a rapist's face graces
All his little toys

An adulterer is the star
Of your daughter's favorite show
But because the man stays in shape
He's far more than a hero

He's a millionaire
But he took another's life
And he can hit the highest notes
While cheating on his wife
