You were always searching for
A way to make it right
Look into the mirror
And it stares back from your eyes
Sorting through the images
You aged for several hours
Slept along the river
And snuck out of paradise
Walking through the memories
Of someone else entirely
You forgot your mother
And your father
And yourself
You wouldn't know
If you looked me in the eye
We're burning at two different times
Falling into a deep hole in the earth
Hiding below
The tree line
Incomplete predictions
Become incomplete realities
The hermit and the madman
Dying fortune-less alone
Underneath the river
Comes a cloudy rubber figure
Forged within a tortured hand and
Dreamt up by a world
He was dreamt up by a world
You wouldn't know
If you looked me in the eye
I'm using you
Just to get by
You wouldn't know
If I looked you in the eye
The truth will eat us both alive
