Mirror

By Mundi Metallum ยท Nu Metal

Mirror is an introspective Nu metal song about confronting shadow and inner fear. The song follows a journey from fear and denial of the darker side within, through a desperate fight for control, to a crucial realization. The lyrics open with a daily inner dialogue a repeated question of "how is it possible that I'm still standing?"

Lyrics:

I ask myself every day.

"Again and again..."

"How is it possible, that I am still standing?"

Inside me is fear, that scares me.

I feel it with every move.

I'm afraid, that one day I'll snap

and i will lose.

The shadow is showing through my skin.

Something dark livs in...

Beyond the veil, I lose my name,

I burn, but never feel the flame.

"Fear! " The only emotion I see.

"What is that?"

My dark self is approaching!

I close myself inside

and no one can save me.

My darker half replacing me...

"More and more..."

"How can I fix this?!"

The deeper that I fall,

the more I want to scream!!!

The shadow is showing through my skin.

Something dark livs in.

Beyond the veil, I lose my name,

I burn, but never feel the flame.

"Fear!" The only emotion I see.

"What is that?"

My dark self is approaching!

Noooooo! Come back!

Your time is not yet.

Noooooo!

For god sake come back!

"Just breathe and go."

I am who I am...

And only I can change myself.

I choose the quiet...

I reject the stress!

No noise in my head

no weight on my chest.

I keep it calm

or rather I cut the rest!!!

Beyond the veil!

I lost my name,

I was the fire,

I was the flame!

Can you see it now?

The veil!!!

Was always me.
