(Spoken Word Intro) That old mirror, yea.... it don't lie, used to show... darkness.... just black.... Man, that glass was rough back then...., just sadness lookin' back again. A hollow stare, a vacant space, nothin' but shadows on my face. (Verse 1) Oh, hmmmm... yeaaa, that mirror used to show the void, felt like I was truly destroyed, Just heading for that endless black, couldn't find my way back. But something shifted, quiet and slow, watched that old reflection grow, Seeing more than just my face, in this tender, graceful loving space... The "old me" now shrinks, now I stand so tall, seeing futures answering the call, Seeing you, the kids right there, a tougher, better us, I swear. That lonely road is overgrown, a different path is known, Our true purpose, truly felt, while the weary world has slept. (Pre-Chorus) With your hand here in my own, the quiet ache begins to fade. Every sunrise paints a brand new dream that we have made. (Chorus) Looking in the mirror now, seeing branches gently bow, Our family, gathering near, banishing the doubt and fear. Vows we make, our hearts declare, planting roots that truly grow, That darkness can go to hell, our connected hearts do swell. (Verse 2) Used to see a final drop, nothing waiting at the top, Just the darkness calling near, drowning out all honest cheer. But the mirror showed a turn, a gentle lesson I could learn, Every face a reason why. Our heartfelt words we hold, stories waiting to unfold, Tangled threads of love and trust, rising from the broken dust. No more heading for the pit, a future we are not going to quit, Growing closer, day by day, softly chasing blues away. (Chorus) Looking in the mirror now, seeing branches gently bow, Our family, gathering near, banishing the doubt and fear. Vows we make, our hearts declare, planting roots that truly grow, That darkness can go to hell, our connected hearts do swell. (Verse 3) Now I see a quiet home, where our spirits freely roam, Tiny hands and sleepy sighs, reflected in these grateful eyes. Little joys that fill the air, a future we have built with care. Every scar, a lesson learned, a brand new page, a corner turned. The quiet strength that softly gleams, through the simple days, it seems. (Verse 4) The sorrow I once carried, it does not weigh me down so low. Just honest laughter in our home, watching these new feelings grow. This mirror shows a steady hand, a future I can hold. Every new day, a simple truth, brave and strong and bold. And all that pain, it is just a memory, in the love we now know. (Bridge) Loneliness just fades to black, there is no turning ever back, Future is coming soft and fast, leaving all that lonely past. Our bond solid, concrete strong, where our hearts truly belong, Growing tighter, held so near, conquering every silent fear. (Chorus) Looking in the mirror now, seeing branches gently bow, Our family, gathering near, banishing the doubt and fear. Vows we make, our hearts declare, planting roots that truly grow, That darkness can go to hell, our connected hearts do swell. (Verse 5) Stare into the glass so true, see the strength of me and you, And the love that binds us tight, guide us through the darkest night. That black hole is just a faded trace, replaced by who we now embrace, Growing in commitment strong, the love we build each day. Yes, the mirror reflects it raw, a future mending every flaw, Our family is growing in its vow, stronger than we know right now. (Outro) So the image in the glass, is not about what could not last, It is about the bonds that grow, letting all the darkness go. Yes, the vow is getting strong, where we all truly belong. No more waiting for that long black train, the mirror now shows a life in a better frame. Just a life, so soft and real, how a wounded heart can heal.
