a mirror’s truth
the door that opened to light my steps
this is the first time I have realized
how far my home is
how deep my heart has fallen
like an angel from the south
only passion makes it easy
to bear the aftertaste of the sky
these hands hold my head high enough
to wear this mask for only you
this is for a mirror’s lies
all soothing as a locked door at an acid party
to find it was only fantasized
that I was heightened somewhere inside
a soul with no home
where I was the frame
and only the painted image remains
these hands hold my head high enough
to wear this mask for you
this is for you
Matt Bailey on guitar everybody
and take this with you
every night you close your eyes
and in your deepest pool of dreams
please remember this is for you
if you only knew
