This one was sitting on the shelf gathering dust so decided to dust it off give it a clean and enhancement.
The song i guess,is about when sometimes we lose ourselves on occasion when distracted by the world around us with all its problems.Sometimes we find no time for ourselves or find out who and what we really are.More to the point know what we really want for ourselves to find contentment or true self purpose.

Lyrics Ash Swan:
STRANGER IN THE MIRROR
STRANGER IN THE STREET
MEETING AT THE CROSSROADS
DIRECTIONS WHAT THEY SPEAK.
DECISIONS MADE BY INSTINCT
ON RISKS WE ALL DO TAKE
REFLECTIONS OF SOME BAD,PAST ERRORS
SOMETIMES ANSWERS COME TOO LATE.
THINKING.......OF A BETTER WAY TOO CHANGE. X2
TENSION IN THE DESERT
FRUSTRATION IN THE STREET
QUESTIONS IN THE MIRROR
OF THE LIFE THEY WANT TO LEAD.
SITTING ON MY BACKSTEP
SITTING BY THE SEA
PONDER ON A 1000 IDEAS
DREAM ON WHAT THEY`D TURN OUT TO BE.
THINKING.......OF A BETTER WORLD TODAY.X2
DANGER IN THE TEMPLES
SOLDIERS IN THE SAND
EVERYTHING THAT SEEMS A THREAT.
IS WIPED OUT BY DEMAND.
THE WORLD IS ALL IN TATTERS
PATCHED UP BY MANS DECEIPT
NEWSFLASH FLICKS ON SITUATIONS
IN TRACK BY THE GREED MACHINE.
PRAYING......FOR A GOD WHO CUTS A SHARE.
WE`RE PAYING ....FOR A DICE ROLL OF DESPAIR.
TIME IS RUNNING SLOWLY
TIME IS RUNNING FAST
WAIT A MOMENT AND WATCH THEM SCURRY
PANIC WHEN THEY THINK THEYRE LAST.
IF LIFES A COMPETITION
IF WINNING GETS YOU FAR
TRY TELLING THAT TO ALL THE QUITTERS
WHO GAVE UP ON FALSE STARTS.
THEYRE WAITING......FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS TO CHANGE. X2
WRITING ON BLANK PAPER
WE`RE BUT VESSELS TO AN UNKNOWN FORCE
WAITING FOR INSPIRATION
AS INK FLOWS IN DUE COURSE.
JOKERS RUN THE COUNTRIES
GRINNING DEVILS IN DISGUICE
THE PUPPETMASTERS HAVE THEIR STRINGS
TANGLED UP IN GENOCIDE.
DEBATING....ON WHO WILL LIVE AND WHO WILL DIE
DEBATING.....ON WHAT IS WRONG AND WHAT IS RIGHT?.................
