Lyrics

It is time to reflect upon your "ego-self". nowhere to hide when the walls echo the you that we
All see. ah, the smiles dissolve! the pulse begins to race; the face a flush 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 growa 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> I see a man, who's unable to withstand his fears inside
( Knight )</i> inside we're all but frightened men
But we have to fight until the end is here
( Roman )</i> hear what I say: I am doomed
I have to pay, I can't go on
( Knight )</i> go on and persevere
For we have to make it out of here alive
( Roman )</i> a life is but a dream
For in the mirror I have seen what lies within
( Knight )</i> within this armour cold and bright
Lies a noble heart with the will to fight the pain
( Roman )</i> the pain cannot be healed
I'm surrounded by this shield I cannot break
( Knight )</i> break through the mirror now
Follow me, I will show you how

( Roman )</i> we've reached the other side
I have overcome my pride and made it through
( Knight )</i> we threw aside our darkest fears
And stepped across these new frontiers of time
( Roman )</i> time can only tell what awaits us in this hell full of deceit
( Knight )</i> deceit, guile and treachery
Will they ever set us free again?

( Roman )</i> riding on the wings of time
