Cause I'm living with mirrors
Mirrors all around
The reflect my every move
And hurl it back and disapprove
I'm living with mirrors
My every eye is on me
And I am obsessed with me
And to look to your own
Brings death in the end
But I'm living with mirrors
And they tell me I don't measure up
And when I see me naked and incomplete
I build a wall around myself
And I flounder beneath the weight
Of bricks above, below and around
And today I felt the bricks begin to falter
Beneath a larger force
Hurl them away
I want to be free
But I can't deal with the nakedness of me.
And I feel Adam's carnal plight
As he hid from his Creator in nakedness
But my bricks, maybe they're just fig leaves
Tear them away
I want to be free
But I can't deal with the nakedness of me.
