Through the trusted eyes of a mirror,
The ordeal has begun,
Through the familiar eyes of a mother,
I beg forgiveness,
Through the loving eyes of one friend,
I ask for a blind pardon.
Who will take my place ?
If i am to be taken myself,
Will you fall before a queen,
Or grovel to a majesty's throne,
-and they believe this ain't the real me -
What will happen to you,
If i were to disappear for good ?
An empty basin with no blood to mop,
A vacant room - best friend for sale,
A constricting bind cut loose - be free
What if i were to run away ?
Never return with no goodbyes,
If she should come and take my hand,
Lead me on to another place - without you,
Would it be leaving or ascending,
Is it i am for once better - than you,
Maybe just once...
Where would you go if i,
Were to walk away from you,
Turn my back so you can't see,
A propositon that is sealing the deal,
The name that has signed the dotted line,
To a majesty more beautiful than she,
Look - this is me,
Say you were to stand and witness,
The slow decay of a special someone,
Stripping herself of sins she keeps,
To the point she is left with no one,
May you turn a blind eye - keep quiet now
-Don't spoil the surprise -
If i were to turn around in a months time,
Would i disappear before your eyes ?
Will you see the real me - without the lies,
The scum that has hidden behind his wall,
And she shall greet you in that purple dress,
That shall hang loose and draped around,
The real me for sure - won't that make you smile,
i'm coming very soon.
Then you can tell me you love me,
That i am these things of vanity,
The mirror will not shout anymore,
My love will not hit her never more,
i will be the perfect fit.
