Behind the Mask - V.S.B.

You hate looking at mirrors

You really are afraid

Still you keep staring

For an age

You think you recognise me

But I’m not really there

You pray to your own shadow

In despair

I am a mirror, I am the truth

I need no words to communicate

The world is my reflection

My face is made of glass

I am the void behind the mask

You hate looking at mirrors

You never see eye to eye

Still you keep hoping

For your spirit to rise

I know that you can’t see

The pain distort my face

The scars that I bear

For all mankind
