This is my first stab at putting an original song on youtube. Please feel free to let me know what you think.
Mirrors
I looked at my reflection in the mirror the other day
And tried to see who I'd become in twenty years
On my face I saw a myriad of disappointments
Set beneath the wrinkles living on my skin
See here's the deal I've grown so tired of dining on this crow
Yeah you could say I'm slightly disillusioned
As time slips by I wonder if I can set aside the pain that's bound to come
And keep my head above the water
Oh my, my, my I wish I had the answer
Oh my, my my I hope I see the light
Before they put my body six feet under
I only want one chance to set things right
The next scene there's a lady lying naked next to me
But she's slowly fading out of focus
Before I even realize my hand's reaching towards the glass
Saying don't go, please don't go away
Though I don't recognize her I know I've lived this all before
In some imaginary institution
Once I held a heart in hand, twice I held my tongue
And sat and wondered is there a point to this at all?
Oh my, my, my I wish I had the answer
Oh my, my my I hope I see the light
Before they put my body six feet under
I only want one chance to set things right x2
