Her Shadow, My Mirror [ENG]

[spoken word] A reflection that moves when you don’t. “Her Shadow, My Mirror” is a haunting dream-pop duet of love and memory, where Corin faces the echo of someone he can no longer touch — a presence that exists only in reflection. A quiet lament between the seen and unseen. This track is part of a full album covering The Vanishing Room.

Your silence hung like fragile glass, It broke inside me as it passed. [Verse 2] The cracks remember where you’ve been, Each one a door I can’t step in. The Room forgets, but I remain, A mirror bound to loss and name. [Chorus] Her shadow lingers in the night, I see her still when I close my eyes. My mirror breaks but stays the same, I hold the key, I speak her name. [Verse 3] I walk through echoes, dim and slow, Each step a place I used to know. The keys I bear all hum her tune, Reflections scattered through the Room. [Verse 4] Not gone, not free, not wholly near, Her voice still whispers in the mirror. And though the light begins to fade, I see her face in every shade. [Chorus] Her shadow, carved into my sight, Fades away but still feels right. My mirror cracks, the glass runs deep, I’m haunted by the vows I keep. [Bridge] I turn the teeth of borrowed light, Each lock replies with sleepless night. If I am keeper, what is true? The door turns me as I turn you. (What do I hold, and what holds me?) (Is it your name, or just the key?) [Chorus] Her shadow, written into light, I see her still when I close my eyes. My mirror, broken yet still true, I turn the key— it turns me too. [Outro] If I’m the shadow, what are you? The mirror answers— (I am too.)
