Cassandra is inspired by the character from Greek mythology who predicted tragedies after being cursed and finally dying like mad. Among the few influences, it passes through Sludge and Post-Metal, creating a dense and heavy experimental sound, always sung in Portuguese.
Mirrors
Cassandra Lyrics
I'm gonna make a change,
For once I'm my life
It's gonna feel real good,
Gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right
As I, turn up the collar on
My favorite winter coat
This wind is blowing my mind
I see the kids in the streets,
With not enough to eat
Who am I to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs
A summer disregard,a broken bottle top
And a one man soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
(If you want to make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
(Washed-out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see
'Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me
(Starting with me!)
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Ooh!)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
(If you want to make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Change his ways, ooh!)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that
(Take a look at yourself and then make that)
Change!
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror, oh yeah!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
No message could have been any clearer
(If you want to make the world a better place)
(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)
(You gotta get it right, while you got the time)
('Cause when you close your heart)
You can't close your, your mind!
(Then you close your, mind!)
That man, that man, that man, that man
With the man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror, oh yeah!)
That man, that man, that man,
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
You know, that man
No message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
(If you want to make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah
(Ooh)
Oh no, no no
I'm gonna make a change
It's gonna feel real good!
Come on!
(Change)
Just lift yourself
You know
You've got to stop it,
Yourself!
(Yeah! Make that change!)
I've got to make that change, today!
Hoo!
(Man in the mirror)
You got to
You got to not let yourself
Brother
Hoo!
(Yeah! Make that change!)
You know I've got to get
That man, that man
(Man in the mirror)
You've got to
You've got to move! Come on!
Come on!
You got to
Stand up! Stand up! Stand up!
(Yeah! Make that change)
Stand up and lift yourself, now!
(Man in the mirror)
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Aw!
(Yeah! Make that change!)
Gonna make that change
Come on!
You know it!
You know it!
You know it!
You know it
(Change)
Make that change.

@Imaginary Light: Here are the lyrics to Cassandra"s Mirror.
My name is Cassandra
I’ve been foreseeing things for as long as I can remember
I saw my parents die
But there wasn’t anyone to listen to the children’s tales
I saw my children die
Before I even conceived them
Don’t cry, oh don’t
Don’t trust, your eyes
I’m damned if I tell you what is written in the stars tonight
(Talk to me, talk to me)
I’m damned if I don’t try to ignore the lines of your hand
When I cannot read but sorrow and pain in your eyes
I met you once before
You were standing in the rain
Overhanging on the cliff of a distant shore
You asked me who I was
But the truth was in my eyes
And you knew it to tell well from the start
You are me and I am you
But years have been tearing us apart
Don’t cry, oh don’t
Don’t trust, your eyes
I’m damned if I tell you what is written in the stars tonight
(Talk to me, talk to me)
I’m damned if I don’t try to ignore the lines of your hand
When I cannot read but sorrow and pain in your eyes
I don’t believe in you
Please stop talking to me now
I want to turn away
And be free to choose my path
I don’t believe in you
Oh please now vanish from my dreams
I am just a child
And I will ignore your lies
