Reflected (on My Side)

Look at all the happy people
See their faces change as you walk into the room
Hundreds of years in the eyes of strangers makes the back of your neck burn
Free to pass, to conform, free to wonder what belongs to the bleeding man inside
Freedom bears no credence when the lack of it's still being justified (in small minds)

Some things never stir the hearts of men
Some mistakes take more than mere regrets to mend
In spite of all the twisting of truth I still see myself reflected in you
But a mountain of distorted vision has me straining for a view
Is it fair to say that it's...

Reflected (on my, my, my side)
Reflected (a wall exists and if I had a fist I'd bust it down)
Reflected (in this I take no pride)
If I had a wish then there would be no sides

There should be no difference here, no mistrust or suspicion here
What we are what we see
To fabricate redemptive boasts confusing all condemning most is feigning fidelity
(I'll) toss a glance into the pool, open my eyes and listen
Wish the rippling surface pure, free of dissension

Nothing can change the way of friends
Nothing else can bring his chilly season to an end
In spite of all the twisting of truth I still see myself reflected in you
But lingering traces of deception burn blind
Just like poison fumes I don't wanna know if it's...

Reflected (on my, my, my side)
Reflected (a wall exists and if I had a fist I'd bust it down)
Reflected (in this I take no pride)
If I had a wish then there would be no sides

This trend of change sees nothin' changing, keep dreamin
I wanna walk like you
I wanna cry with you
I wanna feel the way you do, feel the way you do
