The Judas Mirror

You led me on and took me in

Behind the veil but never again

Will I ever betray myself surrender to a savior's hell

For seven years

I'd trust in you

My innocence

I gave to you

You'd turn upon this gentle soul

Destroy naivete and hope

The day I found the

Judas Mirror

Shades of gray turned crystal clear and

I could see for miles and miles

Your betrayals and my denials

I swore allegiance to the flag -

Then bore your judgements on my back

As sign ‘em up and rob ‘em blind

Became modus operandi

Battered, bleeding, bruised of heart -

My self-esteem you tore apart

Then spoke to me with forked tongue

My game you threw and swore

I'd won Reflections in the

Judas Mirror

Everything revealed so clearly

Steal a look at times gone by

And spitting out my last good-bye

Well I won't live in apathy, embittered by the memories

You haven't seen the last of me

Never, I'll never - pass your way again

I'm stunned you sleep with you each night -

An incubating parasite

When daylight shines through your disguise

The truth will lead to your demise
