Of a maiden in black and silver
She said to me, "Why are you afraid?
Why is the truth so hard to attain?"

I will show you your fears
Just look in the mirror
You can conquer your fears
Look at me

Forty days and forty dreams
Darkened visions, incline the reason
Philosophy cannot soothe your soul
But in the mirror the truth will be known

I will show you your fears
Just look in the mirror
You can conquer your fears
Look in deep

See unobtrusive, through the lies
No longer afraid, afraid to die

And so I lived the dreams
Danced with the maiden, made love to blackness
She said to me, "You are not alone
Don't be afraid to cry"

No more terror sleeps in me
I will not cry, I'll be strong
The last tear has rolled down on my face
I am stronger, stronger than yesterday

I will show you your fears
Just look in the mirror
You can conquer your fears
Look in deep

In my mirror you might not like what you see
(I will show you your fears)
For the mirror reflects the fears that you feel
In the mirror you might not like what you see
(You can conquer your fears)
The mirror, the mirror is calling
