I used to be that boy
Staring back from the mirror
Back when I knew joy
I thought it would last forever
But the years went by
In my heart it'll always be me
Often times I'll try
To finally set him free
But that's all I have left
To turn to when I feel bereft
I experience such peace
The kind that cannot cease
And in the midst of it all
Even at times tears may fall
But that boy is my comfort
That I need when I fall apart
