Shh. For once just stop and listen
See the world through my eyes.
Can you feel the emptiness that penetrates my soul?
Do you hear the silence?
Do you see the pain?
Do you wonder who's in control?
Look at the face in the shattered glass
beyond the disguise of a beautiful smile
I hear the words that don't leave her lips.
I see the tears that never fall.
I feel the anger in her embrace...
...all the while you're still mesmerized by that smile,
but it is only an illusion caused by the shattered glass.
It doesn't exist.
Look once more, this time into her eyes
stop denying the truth and believing the lies.
It's time to let go and put that mask aside.
I'm the face in that mirror...
...the you that you denied.
