Mirrorwalk
Track 32 of Mirror Season
[ Lyrics ]
I don’t run from my reflection anymore. Used to dim the lights before I’d undress, hide my skin like it held your name on repeat. I’d trace the cracks where you said I was less, bend my face till the glass forgot me. All those years I wore your doubt like a frame, lied to my eyes just to play your game. But I’m not asking who I should be— I’m standing still and finally seeing. No more side-eyes, no disguise, I meet myself at the edge tonight. I don’t run from my reflection anymore. I walk right up, push silence to the door. All the scars, all the wars— I name them, love them, leave them on the floor. Used to flinch at the truth in my stare, call my strength just a borrowed spark. You made me think my light wasn’t fair— now I know it’s yours that left the dark. I don’t shrink in the shape I hold, I wear my story like threadbare gold. No more filters, no delay, I speak to me in real-time today. Not broken, not the same— I claim the face that learned to change. I don’t run from my reflection anymore. I walk right up, push silence to the door. All the shame, all the fear— they don’t live in this mirror, not here. This glass don’t lie. It shows the girl who survived. Not for you. Not to prove. Just to be. Just to breathe. I don’t run from my reflection anymore. I walk in calm, I lock the past’s door. I was lost, I was more— now I’m standing face-to-face, restored. I don’t run… I don’t run… I walk.
