Mirror of Desire

from HuffGryffinClaw by Daniel Kelly

/

lyrics

C Em C
I want to stand before the mirror of desire,
C Am G
My empty hand holds everything that I require,
Dm G Dm
Nothing that I want beyond my reach,
Dm G Em
Ready for the lessons life will teach,
C Em Gm
In a state of pure contentment I will be,
Dm G C
Transcending all of want and truly free.

But now I see my father and my mom,
And the life cut short by the accursed one,
Every birthday, hug and fond remark,
But I’m sitting here alone all in the dark.

I’m the captain of the house and quidditch team,
With the prettiest prefect, girl of my dreams,
I am popular and famous and renowned,
But when I look into the mirror I see a clown,

I see all of my enemies torn down,
I want to tear them all to pieces, make them drown,
But I’m ashamed of all the hate that’s in my heart,
I want to let go of it all a brand new start.
