Covered eyes can hardly see the truth
Shreds of hope turn to despair
Gradually peeling tainted shell
Showing glances of humility
Who does not wish to be adored?
While my heart can't stand to owe
vanity isn't willing to pay for everything I know
Time and faith shall guide me every way I'll go
Now every day I leave behind
has left me blind for all that is yet to come
Still my life has cleared away my agony
No one can ever hear my cry
See me try to stop what's already done
All the odds are standing now before me
I cannot give myself to thee
Here your heart will never grow
Vanity will never set me free
so I have to let you go
Now every day I leave behind
has left me blind for all that is yet to come
Still my life has cleared away my agony
No one can ever hear my cry
See me try to stop what's already done
All the odds are standing now before me
Woman, you shouldn't spend your love on me
You'll waste your days in woe
Now my heart will belong to none but me
What my own reflection shows
For years, I was drowning in my reflections
Searching for any glimpse, any record of you
Found a man haunted by his faith, eluded by his vanity
Will I ever find you, truth?
Now every day I leave behind
has left me blind for all that is yet to come
Still my life has cleared away my agony
No one can ever hear my cry
See me try to stop what's already done
All the odds are standing now before me
