The face in the mirror, it stares at me with disdain Disdain and pure hate, an image I no longer know A memory that just won't go away Weakness is all that I see A child with little understanding I am reborn today, I hate what I've become Detest the name that I've known Let me kill you and start again Let me go and never return Scream as I say your name run away Listen to me as I speak your name try and stay Scream as I say your name run away Listen to me as I speak your name try and stay A representation of a life now gone naive and confused I'm wiser now and know not to let them in I'm wise enough to turn my back and run away You cannot read the words that lay before your face You choose to read between the lines Lines that don't exist All the things you think you are But a farce of lies and deceit that you yourself To shield what lies beneath Why is honesty so hard to accept Why are the words held with such regret Why is this life so hard to forget I hate what I've become I detest the name that I've known Let me kill you and start again Let me go and never return
