🎵 Snakes in the Mirror
By REAWL
Intro (Spoken)
Mirror… mirror…
Tell me why betrayal
always wears a familiar face.
⸻
Verse 1
Snake inside the mirror
And it has two faces
And somehow it looks like you
Its heart like a vampire
Preying on its mates
Then growls like a werewolf
Its energy like a leech
Cold eyes behind warm smiles
Truth hiding in disguise
You stood beside me laughing
While slowly cutting ties
⸻
Pre-Chorus
The enemy lives in the mirror
Right in front of you
I call you friend…
But is this
a one-sided plot?
⸻
Chorus
We hold each other close
I tell you secrets
But you’re more like a sieve
than a bucket with holes
You were the only one I told…
But there’s a snake in your mirror
With many heads
Every word I whispered
Came back poisoned instead
⸻
Verse 2
Smiles hide behind your teeth
While poison hides beneath your tongue
You shake my hand like family
But spread my name when I’m gone
Two faces in one reflection
Which one do I believe?
The one that stands beside me…
Or the one that watches me bleed?
You watched me drown in silence
Then asked if I could swim
That’s the thing about betrayal—
sometimes it wears your skin
⸻
Pre-Chorus
The enemy lives in the mirror
Right in front of you
I called you friend…
But friendship shouldn’t feel like war
⸻
Chorus
We hold each other close
I tell you secrets
But you’re more like a sieve
than a bucket with holes
You were the only one I told…
But there’s a snake in your mirror
With many heads
Every word I whispered
Came back poisoned instead
⸻
Bridge (Spoken / Slow)
A snake don’t always hiss…
Sometimes it smiles…
Sometimes it hugs you…
Looks you in the eyes…
while waiting
for the perfect moment
to bite.
⸻
Final Chorus (More Emotional)
We held each other close
I gave you pieces of me
But every secret I buried
Found its way back to the streets
You were the only one I trusted…
Now all I see
is the snake
inside your mirror
staring back at me.
A snake with a shotgun…
smiling
while it aims at me.
⸻
Outro (Soft)
Mirror… mirror…
How many faces
does betrayal wear?
