Another Reflection

Towns change one by one
Time slowly passing by
The only line untouched, ungone
In this ugly play of mine

No way to turn back the time
No chance to wash away every lie
Maybe once I could walk with my shadow
Hand in hand to eternal dawn
Nothing can dry tears on my shoulder
Just don’t say that it’s all over

I wish I could find another reflection
In this dark sparkling mirror

Times are not like they used to be
Years ago, long ago
Story of long lost memory would never plead
The river of time too cold

No way to turn back the time
No chance to wash away every lie
Maybe once I could walk with my shadow
Hand in hand to eternal dawn
Nothing can dry tears on my shoulder
Just don’t say that it’s all over

I wish I could find another reflection
In this dark sparkling mirror

In middle of the night
Someone came to my room
Entered my dreamsight
In the shadows of moon

Following me, haunting me, chasing me
Save me from my own memory
Heal me, cure me, save me
From the shadows in dark sparkling mirror
Give me back my reflection
