eyereflector
throwing back a symbol
of dark transparency
and shadows rendered pale
strangulated microcosm
cracked mirror of the soul
spirit changed beyond recognition
tarnished and frail
(chorus)
wakefulness or an allusive dream?
seeking shelter in a maze
bearing witness to the unforeseen
vanishing without a trace
returning to the end
of all that will not mend
a thousand griefs transcend
recover and extend
