Lyrics

Disengage yourself from doubt and fear
Set the darkest sky on fire
Rearrange your mind, step out of the haze
Liberation of desire
Change direction, choose your path
Burn the bridges to the past
Sow a wind to reap a storm
A spark to the flame
Crawling deep inside
Time and tide waits for no one
Turning inside out as you shall rise again
Do you feel like a stranger
When you look in the mirror
Reveal yourself to find your dreams that define who you are
Is the truth of perception
In the mirror's reflection
There's so much more than meets the eye
What does it take to be alive
Arise from the ashes born from pain
Like a phoenix from the fire
Realign the stars, and make them shine
For your senses to inspire
Change direction choose your path
Burn the bridges to the past
Sow a wind to reap a storm
A spark to the flame
Crawling deep inside
Time and tide waits for no one
Turning inside out as you shall rise again
Do you feel like a stranger
When you look in the mirror
Reveal yourself to find your dreams that define who you are
Is the truth of perception
In the mirror's reflection
There's so much more than meets the eye
What does it take to be alive
The cold heart is coming back to life
And awakens in the eye of the storm
What does it take to be alive
What does it take to be alive
Do you feel like a stranger
When you look in the mirror (mirror)
Do you feel like a stranger
When you look in the mirror
Reveal yourself to find your dreams that define who you are
Is the truth of perception
In the mirror's reflection
There's so much more than meets the eye
What does it take to be alive
