Текст песни Ayreon - The Mirror Maze

Текст:

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 see a man, who's unable to withstand his fears inside [knight] inside we're all but frightened men but we have to fight until the end is here [roman] hear what I say: I am doomed, I have to pay, I can't go on [knight] go on and persevere for we have to make it out of here alive [roman] a life is but a dream, for in the mirror I have seen what lies within [knight] within this armour cold and bright lies a noble heart with the will to fight the pain [roman] the pain cannot be healed, I'm surrounded by this shield I cannot break [knight] break through the mirror now follow me, I will show you how [roman] we've reached the other side, I have overcome my pride and made it through [knight] we threw aside our darkest fears and stepped across these new frontiers of time [roman] time can only tell what awaits us in this hell full of deceit [knight] deceit, guile and treachery will they ever set us free again? [roman] riding on the wings of time
