Looking Glass

Wakin' up to a dream
 Cry and scream feelin' better
 But somehow my recollection ain't the same
 My windows open
 The world plays on like a record
 And skies of blue open up to a summers' rain
 An emotion I'm holding on to forever
 Might not know that some mornings bring me pain
 And when I step to the glass
 It sees me
 I can't erase all the past that's part of me
 Though of this mirror I ask
 I'm pleading
 That I can take from the past apply it to the dream
 Floatin' up on the beat to the street
 Like a feather
 And complications of late can't bring me down
 The lover's lovin' while friends are comin' together
 And leaves are fallin' while kids roll down in the ground
 Sidewalk talk and a double take in the mirror
 Then somehow my recollection can't be found
 But if I'm losin' my way
 Find it may in the mirror
 And if I'm walkin' away
 Come it crashin' down
 I'm lookin' through to the glass
 It sees me
 I can't erase all the past that is part of me
 When of this mirror I ask
 I'm pleading
 That I can take from the past
 Apply it to the dream
 When motive is being honest
 Believing it all the way
 Dear mirror want you to call it
 But don't thinks that's no other way
 Child now listen, child now listen
 Gotta do this on your own
 Better listen, pay attention
 Cause there ain't now way back home
 Now you're wishin'
 And I'm listenin'
 Gonna grant you what you want
 With exception
 Your confession
 This ain't just another song
 Oh, but no mirror (laugh)
 This isn't just another song
 This is my story, like a fairytale
 And I've traveled this far to get here
 That I can't turn back
 So please mirror, please
 Just this once
 The mirror, mirror I ask
 It says me
 The fairest one in the land
 Becomes of me
 When my mistakes of the past
 Complete me
 They come and go like the flash
 Want to haunt on me
 I'm lookin' through to the glass
 It sees me
 I can't erase all the past that is part of me
 And though some people might ask'
 I'm speakin'
 That I can live from the past
 Apply it to the dream
 When motive is being honest
 Believing it all the way
 Dear mirror want you to call it
 But don't thinks that's no other way
