There was a time I thought that I knew
How to judge people and see the over all view
But everything seemed to change once I met you
Betrayed by my emotions from seeing the truth,

Gazing into a crystal pool of future time
I seek some shelter within this mournful rhyme
The future appears not to be worth a dime
Being in love somehow became a crime,

Are these reflections from the 7 Essene Mirrors?
My unconscious attractions only my fears?
No raising a glass to toast or cheers
My only victory those dried tears,

No smell of lipstick perfume or your hair
The phantom of your love once everywhere
Extinguished as though it was never there
In an indifferent world that couldn't really care,

Somehow I brought you into my life
I might as well have been asking for a knife
The fool I am with these frozen memories
Love that can be bliss or a fatal disease,

How can I tell I'm your wounded prize?
All it takes is one look in your eyes
Was it so easy to break those ties?
All it took was those ruthless lies.
