The Mirror
Stefán S. Stefánsson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I keep looking in the mirror
Lost and scared at the same time
Guess I'm searching for an answer
Will I like what I will find
You're ready to discover more
My heart is steady my mind's not sure
There is a feeling deep inside
That's always right
Oh no, I don't know
How to listen to my soul
I get stuck inside my mind
Think I've lost my inner guide
And I know I gotta be strong
And maybe that's why I'm writing this song
Cause I don't know, I don't know
How to listen to my soul
Not anymore
Not anymore
Not anymore
Not anymore
You can ask the stars in the sky
And just follow their advice
Or you can become the master
Take control of your own life
You're ready to discover more
My heart is steady my mind's not sure
There is a feeling deep inside
That's always right
Oh no, I don't know
How to listen to my soul
I get stuck inside my mind
Think I've lost my inner guide
And I know I gotta be strong
And maybe that's why I'm writing this song
Cause I don't know, I don't know
How to listen to my soul
Not anymore
Not anymore
Not anymore
Not anymore
Don't think too much, just listen to your heart
Don't think too much, just listen to your heart




Don't think too much, just listen to your heart
Don't think too much, just listen to your heart
