The Mirror Always Lies

Lyrics

When I look at you
I see such grace and beauty
When I look at you
When I look at you
I see such grace and beauty
I see the way that things were meant to be

You captivate me
You captivate me

The mirror always lies
It shouts out imperfections
The mirror always lies
The mirror always lies
Don’t look for validation
Don’t look for validation in its glass

You captivate me
You captivate me

The longing never filled
The craving and the pain
Can be dissolved in pools of love and mercy
We are not simply pawns
Victims in some game
We are planned and known and loved and wanted

CHORUS
Light a candle in the dark
See the shadows fly see the shadows fly
Light a candle in the dark
See yourself through my eyes see yourself as I do
You’re beautiful

We stand on precipices
waiting for the day
the day we think our life will start
Held back by images
of who we think You are
When You are love itself

CHORUS

Women of truth arise
Refusing all of the lies
Women of truth arise
Refuting all of the lies
Women of truth arise

When I look at you
I see what you were made for
When I look at you
When I look at you
I only see perfection
My one desire is for you to be free
