Who let you crawl
out of my mind?
Who let you speak
wasting their time?
Who let you get
out of control?
Oh yeah, me.
I heard your voice
years before
whisper one day
I'll hit the floor.
Maybe one day
I'll be free,
just listen to me.
I listened to your lies,
held myself back those times,
I'm crying every night
because of you
because of me.
All I see is that
face in the mirror,
broken reflection
of what's inside me.
Red eyes
Tears dried
The voice isn't quiet
but she no longer screams.
Who let him come
into my life?
Who let him speak
into my mind?
Who let him grab
onto my soul?
Oh yeah, me.
I listened to my heart
held him closer to me
I'm crying every night
because of me
for I'm afraid.
All I see is that
face in the mirror,
broken reflection
of what's inside me.
Scared eyes
Timid lies
Sometimes dreams don't come true
I hope they do for you.
Who let me love
when all I know is loss?
Who let me dream
instead of waking?
Who helped me learn
that life can be smiles?
All I see is his
shining voice each morning
a bright reflection
of what's inside me.
Sun shine
Warm eyes
The voice is now silent
and he's my everything.
