Lyrics
Once in a while, I drift in time
Reflecting on past moments occasionally.
To a place in my memory that it still hurts to find
Recalling a painful memory from the past.
I was taking on the world with a see through smile
Confidently facing the world with a fake smile.
But dying on the inside all the while
Suffering internally despite the outward facade.
I was dying on the inside all the while
Reiteration of inner struggles.
Like a martyr that don't want sympathy
Choosing to endure pain without seeking sympathy.
I locked away my feelings and threw away the key
Suppressing emotions and keeping them locked away.
It was gonna take a miracle to pierce my pride
Having a pride that is difficult to break.
And you were the tower of strength that tried
Recognizing someone as a source of support and strength.
When your loving washed right over me like the tide
Experiencing transformative love like a powerful tide.
And now I believe in love
Expressing a newfound belief in love.
I believe in love
Reiteration of the belief in love.
You're the reason why I can
Crediting someone as the reason for the belief in love.
'Cause when I look at myself in the mirror
Reflecting on personal growth when looking in the mirror.
I see a better man, a better man
Seeing oneself as a better person due to love.
Yes it's hard finding words that can say how I feel about you
Expressing difficulty in finding words to describe feelings.
I don't care if it sounds like an old cliche
Acknowledging the potential cliché but emphasizing sincere feelings.
But I can't stand the thought of living my life without you
Unable to imagine life without the person.
For even a day
Stressing the immediacy of the emotional connection.
And now I believe in love
Reaffirming the belief in love.
Yes I believe in love
Reiteration of belief in love.
You're the reason why I can
Attributing the ability to believe in love to someone specific.
'Cause when I look at myself in the mirror
Reflecting on personal growth and positive change in the mirror.
Oh baby when I look at myself in the mirror
Repeating the theme of personal improvement through love.
When I'm looking at myself in the mirror
Emphasizing the introspective process when looking in the mirror.
I see a better man
Seeing a transformed and better version of oneself.
