gh0st in the mirror

Yesterday I saw a boy, quiet and shy, full of hopes and dreams
He wanted to be everybody's friend
But he didn't understand people aren't always what they seem
Pretty faces just playing pretend
An easy mark, a slower pre
Without a cruel word to sa
They knew he wouldn't put up a fight
His tears would fill their appetite
On and on, he goes walking on
I'm calling out but he’s already gone
I’m reaching out to the ghost in the mirror, but he keeps on walking.
Yesterday I saw a man with a fire raging like the sun
He wore his burdens plainly on his face
Carrying the scars of old, feeling like the world owed him one
Something broken he could not replace
He fought and tried to settle the score
To bury wounds forever raw
But from the hurt you hold inside
You cannot run, you cannot hide
Now today I see a man born again from behind these eyes
Staring back at me behind the glass
On and on, I go walking on
I say goodbye to days already gone
I’m letting go of the ghost in the mirror and I’ll keep on walking
I’m letting go of the ghost in the mirror And I’ll keep on walking, keep on listening
I’m letting go of the ghost in the mirror And I’ll keep on walking
Keep on walking
