Through a Broken Mirror

Through your eyes I see reflection

Through your heart I see a soul

Through your heart you keep and love us

Through your eyes you know the world

But through me you'll see nothing

In myself there is no life

You can hold me, hug me, keep me close

But all you're doing is hurting yourself

'Cause I'm not the person you take me for

Unseen, unheard and nothing more

There's nothing fascinating

Nothing wonderful to see

There is none of that specialness you think you see in me

I am a broken mirror

A simple shard of glass

Shattered, scattered

Hoping that I'm lost

And I can only hope that soon you'll see

There's nothing great or special in me

And I'm just that

Just sharp-edged glass

But why is it you?

From which I feed, of which I need?

Why do you take me for something more?

Why is it you who sees more to me…

Than just some broken mirror?
