Some Other Life

A song my bro and I wrote

There's a man in the mirror

and I can't hear what he says

I wish I could read his lips

when he says nothing

 

I can see the pain drain from his face

 

see the confused look in his eyes

he just doesn't know where he's going

has no clue what to do

doesn't know what he's doing

 

he might as well be blind, I'd say

 

(chorus)

I can see the pain

drain from his face

there are many things

that make him play

 

which turns to others as insanity

 

he's playing life's game

of not knowing who he is

but maybe someday he'll wake up and learn

why life was so complicated

 

and he'll relize he was going the wrong way

 

he's rolling the dice

for what could

his very last turn

maybe he'll be free

 

and not trapped behind his own reflection

 

(chorus)

I can see the pain

drain from his face

there are many things

that make him play

 

which turns around others as insanity

 

some day some how

maybe he will know

somewhere right now

he has to step away

 

someday somehow

maybe he'll know how

somewhere right now

he's stuck and he has to stay

 

looking in the mirror he realized

he was looking back at himself
