[Verse 1]
You mime the look that you see in my eyes
You hide your ego behind your disguise
[Refrain]
If I could reach you
I'd join in your shadow game
Stay in your frame
For this world has a price
[Chorus]
Just stay beyond the mirror
Beyond this shallow life
And watch the mortal wither
While you alone survive
An hour a lifetime
From out across the sideline
Just stay beyond the mirror
And watch them through my eyes
[Verse 2]
You long to break out and feel what I feel
You long to see
What the world might reveal
[Refrain]
If I could reach you
I'd trade for your shadow game
The scars you take in this life never heal
[Chorus]
Just stay beyond the mirror
Beyond this shallow life
And watch the mortal wither
While you alone survive
An hour a lifetime
From out across the sideline
Just stay beyond the mirror
And watch them through my eyes
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
I wouldn't open the door to your neverland
I couldn't give you the life that you never had
[Chorus]
Just stay beyond the mirror
Beyond this shallow life
And watch the mortal wither
While you alone survive
An hour a lifetime
From out across the sideline
Just stay beyond the mirror
And watch them through my eyes
