Reflection

Shining bright in the sun
Even when dressed in crimson blood
Couldn't keep it in
Couldn't hold it together
Take a breath, breathe in deep
Become my executioner

Slip the noose around my neck
Cut the rope before I choke
Why can't you make up your mind
Can't you see I deserve to die?
Stop trying to be my savior

All the pain, all the tears
Everyone of your nightmares
They all stem from one place, from one face

Maybe your angel, or maybe my own demon
Created with a face
That some would call human
I don't know what you want
To save me or to break me
We fight the battle everyday

Just me and the one in the mirror.
