As Everything Unfolds - Stranger in the Mirror Lyrics

A fire that's burning it catches on my soul
Crawling inside like there's no-one home
The raging flames around me
Breathe it in, I let it consume me
I told myself I wouldn't become this
Active in the problems I so tried to avoid
An outline of the person that I once was
A shadow moving closer
I just can't seem to find the answer

The stranger in the mirror is smothering me
Grabbing hold of what I want to believe
Pull me out, pull me out
Or let me drown, let me drown

All my darkest fears are laid out one by one
A victim of my mind and it's only just begun
It's creeps up on you, it drags you down
I won't let it wear this hollow crown
It's not fiction anymore it's so very real
The black dog it comes, it hunts, it follows you
We run from our problems like there's no tomorrow
Our reckless mind's are so tainted in sorrow

The stranger in the mirror is smothering me
Grabbing hold of what I want to believe
Pull me out, pull me out
Or let me drown, let me drown
The stranger in the mirror is smothering me
Grabbing hold of what I want to believe
Pull me out, pull me out
Or let me drown, let me drown
