CHEWIE - The Mirror Stage lyrics

It’s us, and them
It’s the way it’s always been
It’s the primary binary of society
It’s scream or sing
Now I’m trapped in this bottle
It was supposed to be lightning
I may as well
I don’t completely understand this myself
It’s this or it, there once came a time
When you looked into the mirror as a kid
The world began it began to split in two
And now you define others based on
How they differ from you
It’s so true It’s so innate, so sick
Regardless of the grain
There’s the feeling that you’re not the same
It’s not yet clear to you
That’s how others function too
I behave in such a way
That my quiet confidence won’t let me stray
From the feeling that I’m not the norm
From the feeling that I am informed
I hope we see each other's face
When we both end up in the same place
My face will surely read: this isn’t
How it was supposed to be
It’s not what was promised to me
It’s us, and them
That’s what they let me think
It’s us, and them
That’s what they let me think
It’s us, and them
It stung to realize that’s what
Everyone was thinking too
