Reflections

[Intro – Spoken / calm, clean electric or acoustic guitar with reverb] Life can be compared to a mirror. What you do, and what you say... It’s all reflected back for others to see. No matter how hard you try to hide it— It shows. You think the cracks can be covered, That your silence hides the sound. But every lie leaves fingerprints, And they stain the glass around. [Pre-verse – slow drums, low growl entering] Every warp is visible, Every crack slips through. Your life is filled with imperfections— AND WE CAN SEE IT ALL! [Verse 1 – Death metal intensity] Shatter the glass, reveal what’s beneath! The monster stares back, bearing your teeth! Reflections twisted by the hands of guilt, The kingdom falls on the bones you built! You preach purity, you wear decay, Your eyes avert but your sins won’t stray. Truth is a weapon, and now it’s unsheathed— Mirror of judgment, mirror of grief! [Chorus – heavy, layered screams & harmonized guitars] You can’t hide what you’ve become! The mirror bleeds for everyone! Twisted truth, your soul laid bare, You built your mask — now choke on air! (echoing whispers beneath growls) It shows... it always shows... [Bridge 1 – Calm, instrumental interlude, piano + soft female backing vocals] The reflection fades... the light bends away. I see your face... but it’s slipping away. The glass remembers what your heart forgot, And every reflection... reveals your rot. [Soft growl rising] You can’t escape yourself forever... [Verse 2 – Picking up tempo, more technical riffing] You stare into the fragments, But the eyes don’t blink back. Each shard is a memory, Each cut is a fact. You can’t outpace the mirror’s gaze, It follows in your shadow’s haze. Beneath the scars, beneath the skin, The truth devours you from within! [Chorus – brutal reprise] You can’t hide what you’ve become! The mirror bleeds for everyone! Your guilt consumes, your silence screams, Reflected death in shattered dreams! [Breakdown – guttural screams, slow chugging rhythm] SEE YOURSELF! The cracks align! FEEL THE GLASS! Cut through time! Your world collapses, frame by frame, You whisper lies, but they sound the same! A thousand eyes behind the glass, Watch your sins as they amass! [Bridge 2 – calm interlude, ambient and echoing vocals] (softly) I see the child you once were... Your laughter trapped in silver haze. Before the weight, before the fear, Before your light decayed. (voice breaks) If only mirrors could forgive... If only they could forget... [Verse 3 – gradual rebuild, melodic death tone] Now every face you meet becomes your own. Every step you take — another stone. The truth you broke still lives inside, In every tear you’ve tried to hide. The mirror’s mercy turns to dust, Reflection twisted into rust. You scream to silence what you see, But it screams louder than you ever could be! [Final Chorus – chaotic, climactic] You can’t hide what you’ve become! The mirror bleeds for everyone! You beg the glass to set you free— But the broken shards are all you’ll be! [Outro – return to calm, slow acoustic, fading reverb] Life can be compared to a mirror. And now... it reflects the end. You see yourself, Not who you were... But what you’ve become. The light fades, The glass turns gray... And all that’s left... Is the echo of your name. [Last whisper – completely clean voice, fading out] It shows.
