Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Dec. 17, 2025]

We were brought here from very far away
There’s a hole in my shoe so I can’t walk far today
Remember your face, I recognise this place
We’ve been talking for so long now I see time is gone

I awoke from my dreams into this mirror world
Where the pleasure had leaked out
And the intrigue had swelled
Mornings of the moon, evenings of the sun
Reversing of the role
Once was playing, now is none
The ladies and the men in the mirror towns
I walk backwards to the stage
From somewhere else the music sounds
The words go past my ears and trickle down the years
Smile through the tears
And the beginning surely nears

As far as you can go
As deep as you can get
As stupid as it seems
A mirror world (abandoned me????)
A city full of weeds
A forest full of steel
A sky full of fish
Can you tell me what's the deal?
The souls of the living
The memory of the dead
We start each day asleep
Then we go back to bed
(They loved me, I was gone????)
I came back, they don't care
I finish at the start
Then I get right out of here
