everybody in the world has a choice
a choice to live life in fear of death
or embrace it and enjoy life while we have it in the palm of our hands

everybody in the world has a question
and everyday they pray for it to be answered while the rest of their life slips away

everybody in this world has a person who loves them and while looking for that person they ignore the love thats right infront of their eyes

only one person can make that choice
only one person can answer that question
and only one person can discover the person who loves them most
that person is the one staring back at you from
the mirror with a smile on it's face
