Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Far, far beyond the island
We dwelt in shades of twilight
Through dread and weary days
Through grief and endless pain
[Verse 2]
It lies unknown, the land of mine
A hidden gate to save us from the shadow fall
The lord of water spoke In the silence, word of wisdom
I've seen the end of all Be aware, the storm gets closer
[Verse 3]
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind, can't you see?
That the winds will change
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind, can't you see?
That tomorrow bears insanity
[Verse 4]
Gone's the wisdom of a thousand years
A world in fire and chains and fear
Leads me to a place so far
Deep down in lies my sacred vision
I'll better keep it safe
[Verse 5]
Shall I leave my friends alone?
Hidden in my twilight hall
Know the world is lost in fire
Sure there is no way to turn it
[Verse 6]
Back to the old days of bliss and cheerful laughter
We're lost in barren lands
Caught in the runnin' flames alone
[Verse 7]
How shall we leave the lost road?
Time's gettin' short so follow me
A leader's task so clearly
To find a path out of the dark
[Verse 8]
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind, can't you see?
That the winds will change
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind, can't you see?
That the winds will change
[Verse 9]
Even though the storm calmed down
The bitter end is just a matter of time
Shall we dare the dragon?
Merciless, he's poisonin' our hearts, our hearts
How shall we leave the lost road?
Time's gettin' short so follow me
A leader's task so clearly
To find a path out of the dark
[Verse 10]
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind, can't you see?
That the winds will change
Mirror mirror on the wall
True hope lies beyond the coast
You're a damned kind, can't you see?
That the winds will change
