Shattered Reflections

I saw a palace in the glass
It felt so real
The golden edges
Every corner seemed to heal

But the cracks were hiding
Waiting to collide
A perfect picture
Masking all the lies

Shattered reflections
They cut like a knife
Distorted illusions
They rewrite my life

A maze of mirrors
Where truth cannot be found
Betrayal echoes
In the silence
I drown

Your words were prisms
They bent with the light
They danced so lovely
But they twisted in the night

I reached to touch you
The image pulled away
I was chasing shadows in a world of dismay

Shattered reflections
They cut like a knife
Distorted illusions
They rewrite my life

A maze of mirrors
Where truth cannot be found
Betrayal echoes
In the silence
I drown

Every mirror holds a piece of what was real
But none can tell me how I'm supposed to feel
The glass is splintered
I'm lost in the maze
A thousand versions of the same cruel gaze

Shattered reflections
They cut like a knife
Distorted illusions
They rewrite my life

A maze of mirrors
Where truth cannot be found
Betrayal echoes
In the silence
I drown
