[Ayreon - The Mirror Maze lyrics]
Forever of the Stars:
It is time to reflect upon your ego
Self nowhere to hide when the
Walls echo the you that we all see Ha ha hah
The smiles dissolve
The pulse begins to race the face
Aflush of fear so plainly painted
The Mirror World, the Mirror Maze
Confrontation
(A inside The Mirror Maze)
HIPPIE:
Mirror, mirror, I can see a lonely child
He kinda looks like me
Staring out into infinity
His father lies, his mother cries
His spirit flies up in the skies
Wandering off to another galaxy fUTUREMAN:
Secret fears we all try to hide
Lie dormant deep inside us
Defy the ghosts of long forgotten days
Here inside the mirror maze
HIPPIE: Mirror, mirror, I can see an
Angry boy, oh well, i guess he's me
Rising up to the society
He's aware that no one cares and life's
Unfair so he grows his hair
And takes a trip into eternity
FUTUREMAN: Secret fears we all try to hide
Lie dormant deep inside us
Defy the ghosts of long forgotten days
Here inside the mirror maze
(B through The Mirror)
ROMAN: I see a man
Who's unable to withstand his fears
BOTH: inside
KNIGHT: we're all but frightened men
But we have to fight until the end is kNIGHT
ROMAN: here hear rOMAN: what I say! I am
Doomed, I have to pay, i can't
BOTH: go on kNIGHT: and persevere
For we have to make it out of here kNIGHT
ROMAN: alive a life
ROMAN: is but a dream
For in the mirror I have seen what lies
BOTH: within
KNIGHT: this armour cold and bright lies a
Noble heart with the will to fight
BOTH: the pain rOMAN: cannot be healed
I'm surrounded by this shield I cannot
BOTH: break
KNIGHT: through the mirror now, follow me
I will show you how!
ROMAN: We've reached the other side
I have overcome my pride and made kNIGHT
ROMAN: it through we threw
KNIGHT: aside our darkest fears and stepped
Across these new frontiers of bOTH: time
ROMAN: can only tell what await's us
In this hell full of bOTH: deceit
KNIGHT: , guile and treachery
Will they ever set us free again?
ROMAN: Riding on the winds of time
(Riding on the winds of time)
I've overcome my pride
Riding on the winds of time
(Riding on the winds of time)
We have reached the other side
Riding on the winds of time
(Riding on the winds of time)
Time can only tell me
Riding on the winds of time
(Riding on the winds of time)
It is time to reflect upon your ego
Self nowhere to hide when the
Walls echo the you that we all see Ha ha hah
