Through Halls of Glass & Mirrors (The Disregard of Memory)
In a hall of shining mirrors As I walk upon the glass I look at moments faded All these things I slowly pass Some stir up emotions Some stir nothing up at all Some make me want to shatter See the shards of memory fall I force myself look forward There’s no need to look…
