Sometimes when it's dark i wonder about past
i look back on the things i've done
i look back, searching for an answer
to those tears from which i've run
I search for my soul, looking deep into my heart
finding nothing but void and emptiness of broken hopes
there where my dreams, burried under sparkling tears
hid away to not be tore apart by my fears
under mask and boastful words i grew away
away from myself, the one who i truly am
i wished for power, i wanted to be
just like those big names in history
I told stories of mighty feats,
battles of others and glories of long forgotten ponies
I created an illusion, a broken mirror to see myself in
to forget who i was and what i could never accomplish
No peaceful life could i ever call home
for adventure my heart bloomed as i hit the road
to see the world, this sunny land
and make my name wherever I'll be sent
Mirrors and smoke, that my life become
when mask feels like your own face
and only painful truth can tear it away
Powerful, amazing and great, that i used to say
Now i look into the mirror and i see me
not her, not what i thought i used to be
just me, happy and calm with genuine smile
today i earned a friend and made amends with another one
i may not know what my purpose is meant to be
but as long as i am truly me, it doesn't need to be
I used to think that all around was just darkness and shadows
But then i met you and i could never fully thank you
