Beyond the mirror

You mime the look that you see in my eyes
You hide your ego behind your disguise
If I could reach you
I'd join in your shadow game
Stay in your frame
For this world has a price

Just stay beyond the mirror
Beyond this shallow life
And watch the mortal wither
While you alone survive
An hour a lifetime
From out across the sideline
Just stay beyond the mirror
And watch them through my eyes

You long to break out and feel what I feel
You long to see
What the world might reveal
If I could reach you
I'd trade for your shadow game
The scars you take in this life never heal

Just stay beyond the mirror
Beyond this shallow life
And watch the mortal wither
While you alone survive
An hour a lifetime
From out across the sideline
Just stay beyond the mirror
And watch them through my eyes

I wouldn't open the door
To your neverland
I couldn't give you the life
That you never had

Just stay beyond the mirror
Beyond this shallow life
And watch the mortal wither
While you alone survive
An hour a lifetime
From out across the sideline
Just stay beyond the mirror
And watch them through my eyes
