Mirror's Reflection

This song is about a guy, say in his early 60's, looking into a mirror one morning, and has an existential crisis of sorts. Partly inspired by listening to pink floyd piper at the gates of dawn, Partially, because to match syd barrett's musical genius, would require me to fry my brain on acid.. I sat on this for a few days as one of the lines, didn't make sense, until I listened to Stupify by Distburbed, which is - My narrow scope of reality? Thought that a brilliant line..

Oh, and yes, I know the line is - I think, therefore, I am... - but to me think has different connotation, so I changed it to exist...

At first wasn't 100% fond of the music but then grew on me the more I listened. it scratched an itch in my brain

[Verse 1]

I wake up, roll out of bed,

Flee the shadows in my head

I gaze deep into the mirror

And I don't like what I see.

If I become, he and he, me

Alter my scope of reality

[Verse 2]

I climb into the world of silver

And float on the circular river

Turbulent sense of true self

Always hidden from ourselves

Is the mirror's reflection a lie

Or truth before our two eyes

[Chorus]

"I exist; therefore, I am,

Or to be or not to be,

All questions of the mind,

And if questions are keys,

Then what it is to be?"

[Verse 3]

My mind opens, he jumps inside

Searching where my being resides

Where it's located isn't exact

But me being is still a fact

I smell, see, touch, taste, hear

I have a sense if identity clear

With butterfly wings I fly free

[Bridge]

Mired in conflicting possibilities

Am i the butterfly or is he me

If have become the butterfly

Then dreamer or dream that flies

[Chorus]

"I exist; therefore, I am,

Or to be or not to be,

All questions of the mind,

And if questions are keys,

Then what it is to be?"
