F#5
E5 F#5
(E5 A5 G5)
[Verse 1]
F#5
In a mirrored room, all alone I stand
Strip away the phantom fame
E5
Exposing all sides to see
F#5 (E5 A5 G5)
The good and bad in me
F#5
In a mirrored room, all alone I stand
Seeing past the flesh and bone
E5
The shame and the fear I hide
F#5
Could I show you what's inside?
[Chorus]
E5 A5 G5 A5 C5 B5 A5
Would you criticize, scrutinize, stigmatize my pain?
C5 B5 A5
Would you summarize, patronize, classify insane?
C5 B5 E5
So I stand here before you
E5
You might judge, you might just bury me
A5 E5 A5 G5 F#5
Or you might set me free
[Interlude]
E5 F#5 E5 A5 G5
[Verse 2]
F#5
In a mirrored room, talking to myself
And the voices pushing back
E5
I'll let them inside my heart
F#5 (E5 A5 G5)
But they'll tear it all apart
F#5
In a mirrored room, just a simple man
Naked, broken, beat, and scarred
E5
What do I really know?
F#5
That fear of letting go
[Chorus]
E5 A5 G5 A5 C5 B5 A5
Would you criticize, scrutinize, stigmatize my pain?
C5 B5 A5
Would you summarize, patronize, classify insane?
C5 B5 E5
So I stand here before you
E5
You might judge, you might just bury me
A5 E5 A5 G5 F#5 B5 A5 B5
Or you might set me, or you might set me free
