Stand Before The Mirror

Reg stood by the mirror and peered in at himself, he didn’t recognise who he saw, the image that peered back out at him didn’t resemble who he thought he was and it shook him to his core………….because he thought, he, the man he recognises as Reg was no more…………………….it was like part of him had died.

STAND BEFORE THE MIRROR

I stand before the mirror, Alone
Looking at this reflection i don’t know
Am i here, can i see me
I’m afraid myself has gone

Another day passes, another day wronged
Another day walking by the meadow not seeing the Daisy’s
Another day wandering with my eye’s closed
Another day
Another day
Another dream
Another day
When I could have been, who i want to be
When I could be, me
When I could look in the mirror and recognize me
When i could see into my eyes
But now ‘m blind
How can i go on
I can’t see me anymore
I’m a shadow in the darkness
I feel i’m no more
I feel i’ve explored every avenue
i can see no more
What am i going to do
What would you, do if i was you
When you don’t recognize yourself anymore
What do you do
I tend to drink
I tend to take my head to the brink
Then i try to drown myself
In the Drink
Drink, drink, drink, drink, DRINK

I stand in front of the mirror
I inspect myself close
I don’t recognize me, I know it’s me looking back at me
I’m afraid of what i see
I’m a shadow of myself
And i’m gone
