[Intro: Martyna Hałas] Behind the gleaming mirror of every appearance A dull suffering is concealed in the dark This hidden affliction is not able to crack The glass fences that we put between us Few people are able to see The distorting face of our misery The smooth surface only returns the projection Of others' expectations in one direction Everywhere these reflected shadows are posted Pictures revealing only our own anxiety Our facades displaying in an infinite gallery The enticing portraits of these defined masks In this sad simulacrum no dream can pierce The thickness of our one-way glass The slightest seed of hope is consumed without delay By the meanders of life before getting digested Time reigns supreme on these formatted subjects Who advance in rhythm with the ticking seconds An interval much too short to allow To expose a part of our unease to the world We have tried so hard to make deafening A silence which may seem obvious to some But those who are in the same situation hear nothing Obsessed with these obscure reflections Still, one day our images will shatter Suddenly revealing miserable figures Mouth paralyzed in a mute cry for help And glassy eyes, forever frozen [Verse 1: Martyna Hałas] Rhymes for the time When we began to hide Losing our mind Starting to decline Behind the hourglass Flattened by the mass Of what days and nights Keep throwing at us [Refrain: Martyna Hałas] The sluice of my brain can no longer impede The foam and the waves of this hard reality The swell is spreading on the shore of my illusions So eroded and worn away by tears in fusion A thundering noise in the prison of my skull I begin to burn the muse that made me dull Her once clear face is fading in the embers But the tumult in my head by no means disappears [Verse 2: Martyna Hałas] Animals Running out of life Building high To keep our dreams in sight Clones in line We've lost our divine Opaque and blind Behold our mankind [Pre-Chorus: Martyna Hałas] Words can't do a thing in this ocean of nonsense My brain shuts down and I'm left without reason How can I not sink, how can I survive How can I see the truth among these lies [Chorus: Martyna Hałas] No light can shine through a mirror (A glass armor) We have turned on the screen forever No one will ever see our fissures (Anymore) Superficial reflections yet darkness between strangers [Verse 3: Martyna Hałas, Jonathan Pellet] Frosty breeze, a whiff of misery Gust of icy winds, putrid melancholy Salty tear, a whisper in your ear Embittered fury, a resounding scream [Chorus: Martyna Hałas] No light can shine through a mirror (A glass armor) We have turned on the screen forever No one will ever see our fissures (Anymore) Superficial reflections yet darkness between strangers [Interlude: Jonathan Pellet] While you feel you might need the dark While you think the light is burning out Rise, rise against your will to hide Though our age sees shadows growing fast And the upcoming night might indeed last The rage in your eyes can restore your sight Rise, rise against your will to hide Rise, rise against your will to hide [Outro: Martyna Hałas, Jonathan Pellet, both] I fall every day in the shadows around me A one way journey with no one to rescue me I sink (I sink), I write (I write), I live (I live), I die (I die) I'm hiding my madness in the ink of my nights I hide I hide
