reckoning (Patreon)

You told me I’m dangerous 
In a moment when that was true 
But I think it’s actually because I make you feel safe 
Entertain the things about you that you hate 
Accurate mirrors can be disorienting 
When you’re used to your reflection distorted 
It’s a kind of reckoning 
One that violently rips away what we thought we knew 
I’ve had them over and over 
And I get the feeling I will continue to 
I’m the most alone I’ve ever been 
But I’m not alone at all 
You hurt just like me
It’s something I can’t unsee
