Here I am again
Condemned by my mistakes
At the feet of my master
So many reflections
Lost in broken mirrors
Shards that cut through skin
Looking for substance
Not knowing if the pain is of the mind or the body
Muddy, like the waters in which
Reluctantly I wash my face
Trying to see the world clearer
Only to get my eyes dirtier
Than my conscience
How much weight do you think you need
Until you cannot get up from the floor anymore
How much do you think your knees will keep going?
And how many keys will you try
Until you break down the door
I welcomed so much pain
And every single time they cleaned their shoes
On the rug that I've become
And I pray every day
"Make it stop"
But I don't believe in anything
And I have this feeling
That the only person that should be listening
Has turn his back
Because it's much easier to never look back
Rather than stare death in the eye
Because it sometimes stares back
And how much time can you actually spend in front of a mirror
Before you get lost in the shadows of yourself
Close your eyes
And wait for it to go away
Do the same tomorrow
Even though it seems wrong
Hold on
One day you will be right.
