As I look into the mirror
A familiar face I see
But do I really know
The man behind it
I pause for just a moment
A break in my routine
To open up the doors
I’ve closed inside me
Just below the surface
Obscure memories
The hope of finding truth
Of knowing myself
To discover hidden meanings
Lost inside a dream
A chance to see within
Where I’ve been blinded
Fading in and out of my consciousness
Remnants of my past forgotten
Reflections
Shadows of my soul
Reflections
Growing quiet as I grow old
Reflections
Echoes of the past
Reflections
In the end, it’s all we have
Looking back on my past
Drifting through the years
A sentimental Journey
That fills a lifetime
Roads that I have traveled
The things that I have seen
Searching for an answer
But where to find it
Fading in and out of my consciousness
Remnants of my past forgotten
Reflections
Shadows of my soul
Reflections
Growing quiet as I grow old
Reflections
Echoes of the past
Reflections
In the end, it’s all we have
Wandering through this world
The path no longer seen
Looking in the mirror
I cannot hide it
Yet deep within my memories
Is the answer that I seek
A pride that now reminds me
Of the man that I am
Fading in and out of my consciousness
Remnants of my past forgotten
Reflections
Shadows of my soul
Reflections
Growing quiet as I grow old
Reflections
Echoes of the past
Reflections
In the end, it’s all we have
