Mirror of Sorrow
[Verse 1]
In a blackened blur of crowding clouds
I dropped my sorrow among the leaves
I took my place, as wise men do
As the storm prepared its release

[Chorus]
Through raging winds and weeping skies
I sat in the loneliness of solitude
I washed my eyes in growing streams
Earth's resistance, true magnitude

[Verse 2]
As black sky faded to blue
And again, the Earth felt the sunrise
A silver mirror stood before me
Bequeath of the silent rainbow

[Chorus]
A beautiful mirror of radiant splendor
As ominous as the autumn moon
It brought upon me, endless wonder
Yet, spoke of some unknown doom

As I reflect back on this day
No words could ever tell
I saw my world
But could not see myself

[Verse 3]
In strange visions
And through the windows of dreams
We solemnly gaze beyond
What is revealed to our eyes
Exists already, in our minds

[Chorus]
Through raging winds and weeping skies
I sat in the loneliness of solitude
I washed my eyes in growing streams
Earth's resistance, true magnitude
