Reflections in Shadows

Caught in a mirror, reflections clash, truths in shadows, truths in ash, I wanna be seen, I wanna be heard, but she fights to keep me hidden, tryna’ keep me in her background, using my own words against me

She sees her own reflection in her rage, projecting fears that her heart can't cage

Hatin' me, it’s her mirror, not a mirror, her reflection: a deeper scar

Ain't showin' respect, asks for it on her knees, but she’s rollin’ out the red carpet for her own disease

I stay on defense, she’s always on attackin’, her words like daggers, my walls are stackin'

Focus on my reaction, missin’ the crime, her actions—hell, I’m just tryin' to hold the line

She’s high, drinkin’, tryin’ to feel alive, but her battles are within, and I can’t survive

Lead me on for miles, love-bombed me blind, my wounds are now open, can’t rewind

Red flags waving, signals ignored, time's a commodity, feelings bore

Needs someone hollow, someone controllable, but I’m stackin’ these commas, just trying to stay unbroken

You want respect, but you don’t give a damn, I’m caught in a storm, trying to understand

Lovin’ a ghost, a reflection of pain, I gotta break free, I can’t stay in the rain

Your fake trauma, your lonely game, I’m too busy buildin’ my name, yeah

I gotta walk away, I gotta let go, before I lose all control

It’s a borrowed time, a fleeting moment, what’s real, what’s just a token?

Your love’s a weapon, it’s facin’ my heart, I’m at the edge, don’t know where to start

I see the truth beneath your disguise, it’s a mirror, but it’s filled with lies

I need a love that’s true, not a game, can’t keep playin' your twisted frame

So I’ll walk away, leaven’ the shadows behind, seek my peace, clear my mind

Hope you find what you think you need, I’m done with your poisonous seed, this relationship is dead
