The Mirror Tells The Tale
I look into the mirror
but all I see
looking back at me
it sadness
I look into the mirror
but all I see
looking back at me
is tears
I look into the mirror
but all I see
looking back at me
is nothing
I look into the mirror
but all I see
looking back at me
is scars

Because Of You I Am Cursed
Words can be killer
But yours were murder
You always got off as being my thriller
But you won’t always be the lead herder
Before your hands could touch me
I stood and waited
Before I got my wits and ran form thee
Because that was the last time I would be baited
Because of you I am cursed
I don't know if it can be easily removed
And from you it came much worse
I will never be approved

I'm Sick And Tired
I'm sick and tired of being trained
To only love the things you’ve stained
I'm sick and tired of leaving behind
Little pieces of me which you’ll find
I’m sick and tired of faking my smiles
And wishing for the pain to go away for awhile
I’m sick and tired of listening to the rain
And counting each pill I take for my pain
I’m sick and tired of grouping for life
When all I want to do is end this strife
I’m sick and tired of loving you
Only to have you say “love ain’t true”

Shadows Of The Night
I’m running with the shadows of the night
So, baby, take my hand, it'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end
You said, oh, girl, it's a cold world
When you keep it all to yourself
I said, you can't hide on the inside
All the pain you've ever felt
Ransom my heart, baby, don't look back
'Cause we got nobody else
I’m running with the shadows of the night
So, baby, take my hand, it'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end
You know that sometimes it feels like
It's all moving way too fast
Use every alibi and words you deny
