Breaking the Mirror
Unveiling Life's Illusions
Lyrics
Walking through your life, you will realize
Reflecting on the journey through life and its challenges
That a path is never easy to find
Highlighting the difficulty of finding a straightforward path
Seeking every day another way to justify
Constantly searching for reasons to justify chosen directions
The directions you have chosen
Reflecting on the consequences of the chosen paths
Working all the time on your best make-up
Investing effort in presenting oneself positively to others
To appear as if you aspire to their eyes
Pretending to aspire to others' expectations
Living off your lies, pretending everything is fine
Living a facade, pretending that everything is okay
For you need a phrase to keep on
Dependent on certain phrases or beliefs to continue
All that you're seeking, all you believe in
Seeking and believing in an ideal, an unrealistic life
Is an ideal, an impossible life
Hiding true self behind unattainable aspirations
Hiding yourself behind an Utopia
Choosing to live behind an idealistic vision
That's your decision, that's the direction
Emphasizing that this decision is a chosen direction for survival
To help yourself to survive in this world
Using ideals to cope and navigate through life
Missing your days for someone else
Regret for sacrificing personal days for someone else
Not you!
Reiteration that the sacrifice is not for oneself
Maybe you don't know what you're looking for
Expressing uncertainty about one's true desires
Hanging from someone's design
Being influenced by external designs and expectations
Never had time to find out who you are
Lamenting the lack of time to discover one's true identity
Far too busy seeing what you want to believe
Being too preoccupied with preferred beliefs to see reality
Feeling of redundnance in sense of life
Sense of redundancy in the meaning or purpose of life
Where the mirror shows a perfect title
Where the reflection in the mirror seems perfect but is deceptive
Everything you have achieved will fall as broken glass
Acknowledging that achievements may shatter like glass
When you part from your reflection
Highlighting the detachment from one's own reflection
All that you're seeking, all you believe in
Reiterating the pursuit of unrealistic ideals in life
Is an ideal, an impossible life
Believing in an idealized and impractical life
Hiding yourself behind an Utopia
Continuing to hide behind an unattainable utopia
That's your decision, that's the direction
Emphasizing that this is a conscious decision for survival
To help yourself to survive in this world
Using ideals as a tool to navigate through the challenges of life
Missing your days for someone other
Regret for sacrificing personal days for someone else
Than you!
Reiteration that the sacrifice is not for oneself
Save me,
A plea for help or salvation
I have lost the key to read the feelings deep within me
Expressing a loss of understanding of one's own emotions
I'm not so sure by my state of sanity
Doubt about one's mental state and stability
Hear me, please don't leave me
A plea not to be abandoned, seeking belief from others
Lord I need someone to believe in me
A desire for someone to have faith in the person's capabilities
Show me the way to go back inside of me
Seeking guidance to rediscover one's inner self
(What do you want now from us
An external voice questioning changes in the person
You used to be different
Expressing a sense of disappointment in the person's transformation
We don't care - not anymore
Rejecting concern or care, indicating indifference
Go and stray, we will say no more)
Encouraging the person to go their own way, indicating a reluctance to engage further
