Man In The Mirror
Confronting Shadows: Unmasking the True Fear Within
Lyrics
You said the one that I should fear
You were warned about someone to fear
Was the man in the mirror
The feared person is the reflection in the mirror
Monsters are for real
Real threats exist, metaphorically represented as monsters
Man in the mirror
Reiteration of the fear of the person in the mirror
It was so hard to see but I guess you're never happy
Difficulty in realizing happiness
Lost in your misery in your head, you never told me
Unrevealed struggles and pain in your thoughts
Sticks and stones may break my bones but the words left scars that I hold
Physical harm may heal, but emotional scars linger
Step on cracks to break my back but my heart will never be whole
Physical vulnerability contrasted with emotional resilience
You said the one that I should fear
Repetition of the warning about the mirror figure
Was the man in the mirror
Emphasizing the realness of the monsters in the mirror
Monsters are for real
Reiteration of the presence of metaphorical monsters
Man in the mirror
Reiteration of the fear of the man in the mirror
It was always you, always you, every time
Acknowledgment of the constant association with 'you'
You said the one that I should fear
Restating the fear of the mirror figure
Was the man in the mirror
Reiterating the warning about the mirror man
Asked your friends honestly, but they said you're always happy
Consulted friends about your happiness, received positive responses
The time that you were with me you were with the man of your dreams
Your happiness was found with someone else
I gave you all that I could give but it's not enough for you no
Offered everything, but it wasn't sufficient for you
Took all that I had then you just let me go
All given, then abandoned without remorse
You said the one that I should fear
Repetition of the warning about the mirror figure
Was the man in the mirror
Reiteration of the realness of the monsters in the mirror
Monsters are for real
Reiteration of the presence of metaphorical monsters
Man in the mirror
Reiteration of the fear of the man in the mirror
It was always you, always you, every time
Acknowledgment of constant association with 'you'
You said the one that I should fear
Reiteration of the warning about the mirror man
Was the man in the mirror
Repetition of the fear of the man in the mirror
You said the one that I should fear
Repetition of the warning about the mirror figure
Was the man in the mirror
Repetition of the fear of the man in the mirror
Monsters are for real
Reiteration of the realness of the monsters in the mirror
Man in the mirror
Reiteration of the presence of metaphorical monsters
It was always you, always you, every time
Acknowledgment of constant association with 'you'
You said the one that I should fear
Reiteration of the warning about the mirror man
Was the man in the mirror
Final repetition of the fear of the man in the mirror
