lyrics

Identify me
Attempt to find me
In a sea of sunken dreams
I stay afloat
But only barely on thin arms
I'm a mirror by myself
Reflecting everybody else
But never what I thought or felt
It's not my time.

It's the silence that depresses me
And I welcome it subconsciously
I don't mind.

Even the blind see
Who they want to be
Not contingent on the stares
They are so blissfully unaware
Of what they are
Everyones gaze it petrifies
Because of what it signifies
I feel I've lost more of myself
Than I can find

It's the silence that depresses me
And I welcome it subconsciously
I don't mind.
And I confront what I repress in me
And I smile at it thankfully
It reminds me of whats real
Reminds me I can feel

And it hurts to know
This is who I am
I'm a mirror myself
Reflecting everybody else
Who am I to deny
my place in their right
I'll just keep the silence for myself
