bathroom mirror
Anthony Eckert
Always thought I'd solve the world's problems
Won't let go of empty bottles
I floored it home through the rain
Clung to friends like God had chosen
Hadn't yet learned all inventions were stolen
And running out of people to blame
Think of how far along you'd be
If they loved you back
When you found yourself
Imagine how far above we'd be
If I'd read the signs, or you loved yourself
Silent cloud in a storming crowd
Anything now would be too loud
Asks me if everything's okay
Assure them so they'll go away
Think of how far along you'd be
If they loved you back
When you found yourself
Imagine how far above we'd be
If I'd read the signs, or you loved yourself
You're with me
In my bathroom mirror
Nothing but a hunch, nothing but a whispered rumor
