I Am a Mirror lyrics

Suppose I were to tell you

that the meaning of dreams

is not all that it seems

and the ultimate truth is a lie.

And you are just a puppet

who can dance on a string.

Do you feel anything?

Would you laugh? Would you care?

Would you cry?

But the meaning of life is a mystery,

how can anyone disagree?

And the music is a symphony

which we play in a minor key.

I am a mirror. I am a mirror.

Looking at me you see yourself

I am a mirror. I am a mirror.

Every face is someone else.

Look at me smile and you're the clown.

And if I dance you turn around.

Look in my eyes and see your tears

until the music disappears.

So if you are confused

and don't know which way to go

You will certainly know

From the moment we're living we die.

And if it's all a crazy game

you don't want to play

Tell me what you can say.

It's a joke. It's the truth. It's a lie.

But the meaning of life is a mystery

that we don't understand so far

And the music of life is a rhapsody

if you're happy the way that you are.

I am a mirror. I am a mirror.

Looking at me you see yourself

I am a mirror. I am a mirror.

Every face is someone else.

Look at me smile and you're the clown.

And if I dance you turn around.

Look in my eyes and see your tears

until the music disappears.

And the meaning of life is a mystery

though we live it from day to day.

But the music of life should be harmony

so that anyone here can play.

I am a mirror. I am a mirror.

Looking at me you see yourself

I am a mirror. I am a mirror.

Every face is someone else.

Look at me smile and you're the clown.

And if I dance you turn around.

Look in my eyes and see your tears

until the music disappears.
