The Key - After Forever

The eyes, looking so cold

Condemn failure

And seek for perfection

What will never be attained

They’re judging the denying face which stares back

A bewildered revelation

Show me objectivity

And let these eyes judge again

You cannot touch what you can’t ever obtain

I’m inexhaustible

As well as empty in my bitter search

My words are yours,

my voice speaks for your thoughts

I am your mirror without remorse,

your reflection without doubts

I fall and fall

I must learn from the bruises

The scars will be my guide

There’s no excuse in ignorance

No time for weakness or regret

Face your mirror without doubt

Your reflection without remorse

If knowledge was wisdom

And wisdom the key to inner rest

Teach me…
