Image for the poem On A One Eyed Dove

On A One Eyed Dove

When you look in the mirror        
Does your conscience show         
Is the truth any clearer         
Or do you pretend you don't know         
Is my reflection is what you see        
Or a reflection of you without me      
In a mirror of broken dreams          
     
 (Instrumental)      
     
Do you remember all the lies         
Do you confess with your soul         
I'm lost in your alibis         
In your world there's nothing to behold         
You say you don’t love me         
But you still can’t set me free  
I don't know what this means  
I don’t know what this means  
 
With a blind eye  
I look to the sky  
I ask God why  
With tears in my eyes  
On these wings I soar  
Of a one eyed dove  
On a one eyed dove
 
(Instrumental)  
 
Is it my reflection what you see  
Or a reflection of you without me  
In a mirror of broken dreams  
Broken dreams  
 
With a blind eye  
I look to the sky  
I ask God why  
With tears in my eyes  
On these wings I soar  
Of a one eyed dove  
On a one eyed dove  
 
Yeah, I look to the sky  
To ask God why  
With tears in my eyes              
On these wings I soar  
Of a one eyed dove  
On a one eyed dove
