When we can't see our own reflection, we can't see what we have become
Empty Mirrors


Here I am again, underneath a crescent moon

My civil war has left me covered in wounds

From my self-doubt I cannot take refuge

Can somebody save me? I know not what I should do!

Somebody help me


Bring this solar eclipse in my head to an end

So I can finally see what kind of man I am

A million miles of walking blind have me longing for light

I want to cast this failure away, into the fine cracks of time

Tell me, am I a man that I can truly defend?

Can you clear away the nebula that I am in?

Can somebody at last pull me out of this raging river

And return my reflection to these empty mirrors?


The starlight fades as shadows float over

It getting harder to see with every hour

Regret is a quicksand that's pulling me under

Will somebody save me from these meteor showers?

Somebody help me


Bring this solar eclipse in my head to an end

So I can finally see what kind of man I am

A million miles of walking blind have me longing for light

I want to cast this failure away, into the fine cracks of time

Tell me, am I a man that I can truly defend?

Can you clear away the nebula that I am in?

Can somebody at last pull me out of this raging river

And return my reflection to these empty mirrors?


Shine a radiant light across the barren mountain ranges of my mind

So that I can see the distant dreams for which I have strived

Somebody help me


Bring this solar eclipse in my head to an end

So I can finally see what kind of man I am

A million miles of walking blind have me longing for light

I want to cast this failure away, into the fine cracks of time


Tell me, am I a man that I can truly defend?

Can you clear away the nebula that I am in?

Can somebody at last pull me out of this raging river

And return my reflection to these empty mirrors?
