The man in the mirror
|
He keeps getting nearer
|
But I am not moving
|
The man in the backstreet
|
Is holding a trackmeet
|
But I will not run.
|
|
Someplace inside you a
|
Seed has been born
|
You've got to watch it grow
|
Someplace inside you
|
A river is waiting to flow
|
Will you let it go?
|
|
Those voices you're hearing
|
Are never worth fearing
|
They're only inside you
|
They'll tempt you and taunt you
|
They'll help you and haunt you
|
But don't try to hide.
|
|
Sometimes the sun will be
|
Right at your shoulder
|
Helping you keep your stride
|
Sometimes you might have to give up
|
A piece of your pride
|
Have you even tried?
|
|
