[Intro]
Verse 1
I kept countin’ every teardrop
like she cried them just for show.
Takin’ aim at all her shadows,
never mindin’ my own ghosts.
I wore righteousness like armor,
thought my pride would set me free…
But you can’t fix a single problem
with a heart you refuse to see.
Pre-Chorus
She held up the truth so gently,
like a lantern meant for me…
But I kept starin’ past the light
into the lie I chose to believe.
Chorus
’Cause all those years I was blinded
by reflections I couldn’t see.
Blamed her for all the wreckage
that was really caused by me.
Now this bed feels like confession,
silence cuts too deep to breathe…
I lost the best thing in my life
to reflections I couldn’t see.
Verse 2
I was chasing down her demons,
never fighting mine at all.
I was feeding every silence
’til the quiet finally screamed.
I wasn’t the hand that held her,
I was the reason she let go.
Took her leaving like betrayal,
played the victim in the end…
Till the truth hit like a hammer—
I wasn’t lover, I was the sin.
Pre-Chorus
Now I replay every moment,
and the truth hits differently…
The only soul I couldn’t face
was the one inside of me.
Chorus
’Cause all those years I was blinded
by reflections I couldn’t see.
Blamed her for all the wreckage
that was really caused by me.
Now this house feels like a warning,
echoes whisper constantly…
I lost the best thing in my life
to reflections I couldn’t see.
Bridge
Tonight I found an old note
that she’d tucked inside my coat:
“One day you’ll face your mirror,
and I pray it sets you free.”
And standing in that moment
I felt every part of me…
break
open like the glass
of the man I wouldn’t see.
Final Chorus
All those years I kept on running
from the truth she saw in me.
Now the mirror’s finally honest,
and it’s tearing at the seams.
If forgiveness ever finds her,
Lord, don’t waste a drop on me…
’Cause I destroyed the love we had
with reflections I couldn’t see.
