When you search through a darkened room
Seeking a light to break through the gloom
Tread carefully for you will find
The madness that comes from your mind
If you see a mirror, turn your eyes away
For you’re not ready to see what’s in it today
The mirror reflects the part of you that you hide
From yourself and others, you bury it deep inside
If you’ve forgotten what you don’t want to see
Gaze upon the mirror for a moment or three
What stares back at you will send you screaming
It can’t be true but you know you’re not dreaming.
The horror within has been set free
“Hide it again Bury it!” You sob and plea.
But it cannot be undone, you can’t run from it anymore
You now know the horror from deep within your core.
The horror has escaped from the chains that bind
Now, it is loose and destroying your mind.
