My Own Reflection

I thought we were flying

But you never even had wings

Where were you hiding...?

You drowned in my arms

I looked down at you, searching for direction

What I saw was my own reflection

Losing you was my worst fear

But I didn't actually lose anything

Because you were never mine

You eroded away with time

Sometimes I want to rewind...

Your love was a mask that you held up against me

Losing you was my worst fear

But I didn't actually lose anything

Because you & him are not the same

An image that he feigned

He held your name in vain

He would be crushed by the weight of his own feelings

What made him feel small?

Losing you was my worst fear

But I didn't actually lose anything

Because you never existed

When I think we're making some distance

He catches up with us again

Who is he?
