Monsters in the Mirror
Monsters live in the mirror
I see them every day
I can’t see my reflection
Cuz there always in the way
Silently they’re haunting me
With there lies they’re taunting me
Making me believe
That no ones ever really wanting me
There’s a man in the mirror that’s a stranger to me
I feel like he may even be a danger to me
And I think its even stranger to see
The mirror man and me do not always agree
This man is but a mirrored mirage
Put together like a strange collage
Creating illusions of reality
He’s a Bogart taking many shapes
Within a glass he can’t escape
A real life he can only imitate
Now this man is imitating me
When I walk away does he disappear?
Does he only exist if I am near?
Or maybe he just goes to become someone else’s fear
A parallel universe exists
Inside the mirror with a twist
He might be my reflection
But maybe I am his
Maybe he’s plotting against me
He’ll rise up and I will then be
His puppet slave to copy him obediently
While my life is taken from me
I’m doomed to watch while he becomes me
Mirror mirror on the wall
How I wish that you would fall
For on the floor what I would see is
Shattered demons ripped to pieces
I see them every day
I can’t see my reflection
Cuz there always in the way
Silently they’re haunting me
With there lies they’re taunting me
Making me believe
That no ones ever really wanting me
There’s a man in the mirror that’s a stranger to me
I feel like he may even be a danger to me
And I think its even stranger to see
The mirror man and me do not always agree
This man is but a mirrored mirage
Put together like a strange collage
Creating illusions of reality
He’s a Bogart taking many shapes
Within a glass he can’t escape
A real life he can only imitate
Now this man is imitating me
When I walk away does he disappear?
Does he only exist if I am near?
Or maybe he just goes to become someone else’s fear
A parallel universe exists
Inside the mirror with a twist
He might be my reflection
But maybe I am his
Maybe he’s plotting against me
He’ll rise up and I will then be
His puppet slave to copy him obediently
While my life is taken from me
I’m doomed to watch while he becomes me
Mirror mirror on the wall
How I wish that you would fall
For on the floor what I would see is
Shattered demons ripped to pieces
