Reflection – Makari

I’m standing here, already in the next frame
I can’t keep living this way

I heard a fairy tale that said, “we’re the same”
I think our hearts are to blame

I’m fighting with my head
Just to get along with you
We share no common thread
I’d change but it’s no use

I never could relate to anyone
Forever running in the wrong direction
I lose myself so I can be someone
‘Til I don’t recognize my own reflection

And if you think think you’ve seen the real me
It’s just a trick I played
Your wisdom couldn’t heal me
Another masquerade

There’s no light in your eyes
I can see right through the lies
Don’t need another one
Cause I’m already gone

I never could relate to anyone
Forever running in the wrong direction
I lose myself so I can be someone
‘Til I don’t recognize my own reflection

Pull me closer
Take the long walk over
And tell me something I won’t believe
The air grows colder
And it hurts all over
Wanting to be something I will never be
The same
The same
The same
The same

I never could relate to anyone
Forever running in the wrong direction
I lose myself so I can be someone
‘Til I don’t recognize my own reflection
My own reflection
