The darkness hid my tears

It also held my deepest fears

For in the dark I can’t be found

It's also where love would drown

I’d sit and judge those I saw as weak

Continuing until their eyes would leak

Lashing out against the ones I see

Cause they would not believe in me

Even in this, I tell my lies

Leading me to my own demise

The one I see in the mirror

When nothing else is really clear

I say they have no right to the lives they end

But let's be real it’s all pretend

Cause at the core I know it’s true

That the real blood falls on just a few

The one that encouraged them to act

The one that fought despite the fact

He who held the greatest card

He who fell when things got hard

Yes it hurts to see it now . . .

To no longer ask the question how

“Why did they have to die?”

“Look in the mirror, you’ll see why”

It’s me, from every single time

I truly wasn’t worth a dime

Yet now is not the time to think

When everything is on the brink

I know now I must hold fast

For I cannot change the past

It’s time to do what is right

The truth finally came to light
