There are certain things in life that we cherish deeply—things we choose to keep close because they bring us joy, comfort, or a sense of belonging. Then, there are things we hold onto simply because we want to, whether for nostalgia or personal attachment. And sometimes, we find ourselves keeping things out of necessity, even when we may not want to.
Music, in particular, has a way of carrying emotions that words alone often fail to capture. There are songs that resonate with the unspoken thoughts in my heart, melodies that seem to articulate the emotions I struggle to put into words. They give voice to the feelings I keep hidden, translating them into harmonies that echo my inner world.
One such song is Reflection. It holds a special place in my heart because it expresses what I sometimes cannot say myself. Through its lyrics and melody, it becomes a mirror to my emotions, allowing me to connect with my own thoughts in a way nothing else can. Some songs are just like that—they understand us even when we can’t fully understand ourselves.
The lyrics of the song said it all. I got nothing more to say.
ReflectionAm I Alone?
By: Christine Aguillera
Look at me, you may think you see who I really am, but you'll never know me. Everyday it’s as if I play a part. Now I see if I wear a mask I can fool the world but I cannot fool my heart
Who is that guy I see staring straight back at me? When will my reflection show who I am inside?
I am now in a world where I have to hide my heart and what I believe in
But somehow I will show the world what's inside my heart and be loved for who I am.
Who is that guy I see staring straight back at me? Why is my reflection someone I don't know? Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all time? When will my reflection show who I am inside?
There's a heart that must be free to fly that burns with a need to know the reason why. Why must we all conceal what we think, how we feel? Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm someone else for all time. When will my reflection show who I am inside? When will my reflection show who I am inside?
