Mirror Inside

In the silence of the night
I see a face in the fading light
Not a stranger, not a friend
Just the version I pretend

I've been running, I've been blind
Searching for what I couldn't find

There's a mirror inside, showing all I hide
Cracks and colors, fears I tried to fight
But the truth's in my eyes, I can't deny
The one I am, behind the lies

Tired smiles and borrowed dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
But when I breathe and close my eyes
I hear the voice I've pushed aside

No more running, no disguise
I'm learning how to feel alive

There's a mirror inside, showing all I hide
Cracks and colors, fears I tried to fight
But the truth's in my eyes, I can't deny
The one I am, behind the lies

I won't break, I'll bend and grow
Let the light within me show
I'm not perfect, but I'm real
And this reflection's what I feel

There's a mirror inside, shining open wide
No more shame, I won't divide
I'm whole again, I won't rewind
I see the soul I tried to find
