Mirrored Eyes

I wish i knew what they expect me to believe.
I keep following the signs they throw in front of me, but it's getting me nowhere,
I'm backsliding into someone i dont want to be.
I'm trying to see the love in their hatred and jealousy, but that's one thing I cannot see.

No, no, there's no concern behind their mirrored eyes.
they just keep spinning perfect lies, breaking me into pieces on the inside
Oh, no, no, there's no return for my sacrifice
I've tried to change but they're never satisfied, they love to know that I'm not fine,
but this time... I won't trust them to decide, I'll leave this darkness with my pride,
they can't have what's left of me...
their souls are dark and they can only hide
behind insults and mirrored eyes.

I wonder, what did i do to deserve this?
was it something i said or something i missed?
I'm searching for the fault lines but the fault lies in those who left me broken, suffocating in unspoken anguish...
I kept it all in my head, just trying to forget, but I lost myself in their mirrored eyes instead...

and now I don't know who is looking back at me
this reflection isn't what it used to be
I thought I was safe and sound hiding in my heart
but they keep sneaking their way in to haunt me,
to them it's funny, making me doubt my own perception
I'm not sure who to trust, I can't see through the dusk
but i do believe I am surrounded, by mirrored eyes.
fumbling around in my life that i despise
I hope that one day maybe I'll realize
not everyone hides behind mirrored eyes.
