Analysis of Eye to eye
EYE TO EYE
===========
Your mirror is spirit of fire
Tells your actual buyer
your mind wants to hire
To know the truth and never lie
When you are in doubt
Then look into the mirror eye to eye
Mirror on your sink
Advise you never blink
Face the absolute truth
Hold fast your actual link
When blind alley convince you to think
Then look into the mirror eye to eye
Wild and strange are garland of desire
Sound of home we always admire
Compass-Light guides your path
Pole star really does inspire
When Rattle of culture questions why ?
Then look into the mirror eye to eye
Your mirror gives you a real reply
Don't depend on others but rely
On your Self mirror eye to eye !
