"Mirror Of Night" lyrics - DELAIN

DELAIN
"Mirror Of Night"

Looking behind, diverging roads I've wandered
I can see turns unheeded
Gazing through eyes within these dark reflections
Facing a time long gone now

[Chorus:]
It's the quiet of the night I fear
The inner torrent that's unleashed
Replaying me the thousand times
I should have spoken other lines
In the middle of the night I hear
The dying dreams I never reached
But I cannot travel back now
Roads I've come down
Reality is staring back at me

Eternalized are words already spoken
I can't erase or change now
Hyperbolized these thoughts running unfettered
I cannot tame or cage them

[Chorus:]
It's the quiet of the night I fear
The inner torrent that's unleashed
Replaying me the thousand times
I should have spoken other lines
In the middle of the night I hear
The dying dreams I never reached
But I cannot travel back now
Roads I've come down
Reality is staring back at me

[Bridge:]
The mirror of night it swallows me
Must leave behind to be set free

[Chorus:]
It's the quiet of the night I fear
The inner torrent that's unleashed
Replaying me the thousand times
I should have spoken other lines
It's the quiet of the night I fear
The inner torrent that's unleashed
Replaying me the thousand times
I should have spoken other lines
In the middle of the night I hear
The dying dreams I never reached
But I know these dark reflections
Can change nothing
Reality is staring back at me
