Intro
Sometimes when you look in the mirror
You see things that you don’t want to see
And they’re not things you didn’t know about
They’re things you didn’t want to face
You’ve spent so long trying to see things in yourself that just weren’t there
Or at least convince other people to see them
It’s like lying in your bed, staring at the ceiling
Making a whole world out of the shapes you see
Watching the characters interact and wondering what it’d be like to live in your ceiling world
But eventually you realize there’s nothing more than texture on the ceiling
And you’re still lying alone in your empty room
Chorus
When you are sleeping in you bed
And all you see is dark
You face the images of
Who you really are
Verse
Quick hold back another day
Always watch what you say
Keep that look you wanna see
Don’t face that reality
You’re not changing now
It’s been far too long
So hold on some how
Before it’s all gone
Turnaround
But I am what you see
Yes I am what you see
Does it matter that it
Is illusionary?
That’s the question I’m asking
No I’m not try to pass as a phony
I know me now just let me be
Chorus
When you are sleeping in you bed
And all you see is dark
You face the images of
Who you really are
