King in the Mirror
Anna F. Lyrics

I am still
I am motionless and unchanging.

Cannot feel
I am unable to feel emotions.

There's silence
All around me is quiet and still.

I am an island
I am isolated and alone, separate from everything else.

And my will
Despite this, I have a strong sense of determination.

Is broken
But that determination has been shattered.

I am frozen
I am stuck, unable to make a move or progress forward.

I'm the king in the mirror
When I look at myself, I am in control and powerful.

Queen of the shy
But in reality, I am timid and lack confidence.

The hero is hidden for so long
I have been suppressing my true heroic self for a long time.

Not in real life
But outside of the mirror, I am not seen as a king or hero.

And I've looked in the mirror for too long
I have spent too much time focusing on what I see in the mirror rather than in reality.

What to do
I am unsure of my next steps.

Make a move
It's time for me to take action.

We're flying
We are moving quickly.

Still hiding
But I am still trying to avoid being seen.

See it through
I need to keep going and not give up.

To deny it
I cannot ignore the truth.

Is lying
It would be a lie to pretend everything is okay when it is not.

I want to be
I hope to become.

Where I can see
In a place where I have clarity and understanding.

Where you just looking back at me
Where I can see my true self reflected back to me.

What I can see
I aspire to be what I envision for myself.

For too long
I have lingered in this state for far too much time.
