lyrics

The figure in the mirror shifts
Sways softly against my moves
Speaks a barrage of deception
The lips move in tandem with mine
Words come through like gibberish
Yet I appear to be the origination

Am I the mimic? Or do I have the truth?
Am I the marionette? Or the puppeteer?

And it’s righteously learning
Staring into cursed eyes burning
The glass for a moment stops reflecting

The only thing it does is hide
Staring ashen toward me

How can it see inside my soul?
When it’s a soul that I don’t own
How can it reach inside my head?
Using the same words and phrases
The same phrases I seem to speak

I remember – I am the originator
It is the mimic – stealing out each spiteful word

I have lied to myself
I, in this mirrored shell
I have become the liar
I, deception in mirrors

The utmost hateful critic
The mimic alone is I
