Living in a house of mirrors, thinking you're looking out a window

I stared at the reflection of the world

who looked at me in disgust 

and said 

i'll show you 

then i looked again 

I stared into a reflection of myself 

Living in a house of mirrors 

thinking i was looking out a window 

i stared into my shame

i stared into my limiting beliefs 

i stared into the voices that were never mine, but i took them on as fact

for i did not know who i was 

and allowed the world who did not know me either 

to define me 

i stared into the hornets nest of my own psyche 

my own shame 

my own beliefs 

that i projected out and allowed to define you and me 

and said 

i'll show you 

and so it began
