1–2 minutes

The man in the mirror looks back at me
Judging not what he does see
He knows the truth that’s deep inside
He knows with me he can confide

Sometimes I will not stare back
When my thoughts are dark and black
That’s because he’ll kick my ass
Break me free of my morass

He’s clear on what is going on
He’s the one I cannot con
He knows my every deep dark thought
Squashes them to zilch and naught

And he is my dearest friend
Calls it straight does not offend
Just look back into his eyes
Draw his strength and energize
