A Broken Reflection

[00:07.50] A broken reflection
[00:11.91]
[00:19.28] A picture means nothing
[00:21.55] When the image in my head is all I see
[00:24.37] A portrait of loathing
[00:26.52] A painting of insecurity
[00:29.27] I've burned the image a thousand times
[00:31.42] To destroy the site of myself
[00:34.01] But it left a branded mark behind
[00:36.06] Reminding me I’m far from well
[00:38.69] (Far from well)
[00:43.37]
[00:43.38] Now I stand strong but fragile
[00:45.65] Like clay pulled from the kiln
[00:46.99]
[00:47.00] Face to face with what I fear
[00:51.48] Reflection from a twisted mirror
[00:56.27] Where every flaw is brought to light
[01:01.02] And all that shines is left behind
[01:07.67]
[01:07.68] A broken reflection
[01:12.44]
[01:19.59] Engrained with permanence
[01:21.28] Like a statue standing tall (standing tall)
[01:24.60] But the frailty of a mere sketch
[01:26.36] Constantly set to rise and fall
[01:29.50]
[01:29.51] Depicting distortion
[01:31.77] Seen through an old warped film
[01:34.24] Now I stand strong but fragile
[01:36.13] Like clay pulled from the kiln
[01:38.73]
[01:38.74] Interpreting the madness
[01:42.34] And cleansing the palette to bring
[01:46.58] Bring me face to face with what I fear
[01:51.75] Reflection from a twisted mirror
[01:56.58] Where every flaw is brought to light
[02:01.54] And all that shines is left behind
[02:07.63]
[02:17.34] Will I ever be content with what I see?
[02:19.90] (Will I ever be content with what I see?)
[02:22.07] Or will my greatest oppressor (my greatest oppressor)
[02:25.53] Always be me?
[02:28.70]
[02:30.98] Shattered
[02:36.23]
[02:37.30] Engrained with permanence
[02:39.73] (Engrained with permanence)
[02:42.46] Like a statue standing tall
[02:47.44] But the frailty of a sketch
[02:52.16] Set to constantly rise and fall
[02:55.99]
[02:56.05] Though charred by the demolition
[02:57.84] A new image begins to appear
[03:00.80] Just like the one I'd destroyed
[03:02.80] Re-embraced by fear
[03:04.10]
[03:04.11] Face to face with what I fear
[03:08.42] Reflection from a twisted mirror
[03:13.35] Where every flaw is brought to light
[03:18.37] And all that shines is left behind
[03:23.49]
[03:23.50] Reflection
[03:28.02] Reflection
[03:32.84] Bring me back
[03:34.09]
[03:34.10] Interpreting the madness
[03:37.24] And cleansing the palette to bring
[03:41.15] Bring me back from this hell
[03:46.09]
[03:46.10] Shattered
[03:48.48] Shattered
[03:50.96]
