Good morning mirror
I see you’ve made a change
You took it on yourself
My face to rearrange
Good morning caffeine
It’s been one of those years
We can discuss the twisted
Perfidy of mirrors
I want to sing
But I do not want to be heard
I have a point
But I’m afraid that it’s absurd
I’d make some noise
But hesitate to make a sound
For everybody loves me, but
No one wants me around
There is a kind of sort of
Tension in the air
Like I’d been fighting with
Someone who isn’t there
And like a story where
The twist just leaves you lost;
I’ve kept accounts of everything
Except what it might cost
I want to sing
But I do not want to be heard
I have a point
But I’m afraid that it’s absurd
I’d make some noise
But hesitate to make a sound
For everybody loves me, but
No one wants me around
I want to dance
But I do not want to be seen
I fight with mirrors and
I talk to my caffeine
I’d change my life if I
Could get the thing unwound
And maybe people love me, but
They’re shocked I’m still around

I am thinking aloud
Yet, I want to be heard by those
who never expect me around
for that’s how it goes
I must do and already did
