Shattered Mirrors and Rising Ruins

Hold it all in, don’t let it show

But my glass is shattering, can’t let you know

The shell I created, holding on tight

Cracks in the surface, day turns to night

Like skyscrapers falling, I’m losing my ground

Mirrors reflecting, the truth I’ve found

Your expression was light, now darkness descends

Little did you know, it’s hard to pretend

Are you upset? Are you walking away?

Time was a treasure, now it’s in disarray

The ruins are crumbling, can you see them all?

Everything promised, now it’s starting to fall

Was I your everything? Or nothing at all?

Am I just a shadow, waiting for your call?

Your sorry’s not enough; I can’t hear your sound

But the words that you whisper, they're weighing me down

Once upon a dream, we flew through the skies

Snow white is fading, as the evil queen lies

I’ll stand my ground, though I’m fractured and torn

Fighting for my place, in the quiet I’m reborn

Is your sorry enough? Did you even care?

The battle for my heart, feels heavy in the air

You built up the walls, but they’re crumbling fast

It’s time to rise up, forget about the past

Was I your everything? Or nothing at all?

Am I just a shadow, waiting for your call?

Your sorry’s not enough; I can’t hear your sound

But the words that you whisper, they're weighing me down

Watch as the ruins crumble, just look at me rise

From the ashes of heartache, I’ll open my eyes

You started this fire, now it’s out of control

The broken will flourish and reclaim my soul

So hold everything in, but know that I’ll shine

With strength in my heart, I’ll claim what is mine

The mirrors may shatter but I’ll piece them together

From the ruins of love, I’ll bloom like the heather.
