Another's Eyes

CLICK HERE TO HEAR THE SONG

You've played many roles,

Most of your life.

Daughter, sister, friend, 

A mother and a wife.

In every hurricane,

There's an eye serene.

And you can hear a voice, 

Saying who you should be.  

Cause the script you had,

Since you took the stage.   

Has lines you forgot,  

And is missing a page. 

The rules can change,

The stars re-align. 

When you don't see yourself, 

Through another's eyes.

Strike a yoga pose,

To locate your breath.

So you can recite,

A psalm of loneliness.

There’s a moment between,

Inhale and release.

Where the tumult recedes,

And the poses all cease.

The rules can change,

The stars re-align. 

When you don't see yourself, 

Through another's eyes.

I won't be your mirror,

And you won't be mine.

A map isn't space,

And a clock isn't time.

The rules can change,

The stars re-align. 

When you don't see yourself, 

Through another's eyes.
