✦ Lyrics by adipit ✦ [Intro: Soft piano and cinematic atmosphere] [Verse 1] Through the tides of the world, I walk a beaten way, A familiar face in everyone I sway. No soul I meet could ever be a stranger, Just a shard of sighs within my own chamber. What I behold in you is kept in me, Echoes of joy or echoes of misery. [Chorus: Building intensity, melodic] Tear down the masks, let time be cast aside, Seven mirrors where your true self will hide. Seven lessons learned to help me find my soul, Burning the fear, to make my spirit whole. [Verse 2] The things you judge are hidden deep inside, A silent truth from which you cannot hide. The things you love are gold you cast away, The soul’s great gift you failed to see today. Within the world, I hear the lonely cry, Of the sweet child you left in days gone by. [Chorus: Layered harmonies, powerful] Tear down the masks, let time be cast aside, Seven mirrors where your true self will hide. Seven lessons learned to help me find my soul, Burning the fear, to make my spirit whole. [Verse 3] Past loves return like destiny’s design, In different masks, with the same bitter wine. In those you choose, your parents’ ghosts appear, Heal the old wound, let the image disappear. And the dark night that filled your heart with dread, Is just your shadow on their faces spread. [Bridge: High emotion, Modulate up 2 semitones, Orchestral crescendo] You’re not a victim, you’re the one who creates, When from your soul a living fountain wakes. You are the source, you’ve been it from the start, The world sees only what is in your heart. The way you speak to yourself, they hear it too, Love your own soul, and they will all love you. [Chorus: Maximum intensity, symphonic climax] Tear down the masks, let time be cast aside, Seven mirrors where your true self will hide. Seven lessons learned to help me find my soul, Burning the fear, to make my spirit whole. [Outro: Minimalist, ethereal fade out] As you love yourself, I hear your call… You are the creator. [End]
