about

“The Mirror” is a journey from duality to communion, reflecting upon the idea that we’re trapped in a world of conflicting opposites. We demonize the other and sanctify ourselves, without realizing, we’re all part of the same. The song invites us to connect from the heart, embracing our commonalities and seeking the best in one another.

lyrics

The Mirror
Music & lyrics: Jorge Perez-Albela

Say it again
Say it again
we are the mirrors
of each other’s worlds

We blame it on them,
How would they dare?
Don’t look in the mirror
I’m not one of them

What would it take?
Long is this restless wait
Hear this my voice
This one and only voice
Hope it can reach
the fabrics of your heart

We saw it again
We heard it again
Forever blaming
“I’m not one of them”

Search deep inside
What have we done?
Look in the mirror
yes, we’re one of them

What would it take?
Long is the restless wait
Healing our fate
Our future, our pain
Hope we embrace
This light within our hearts

Say it again
Say it again
we are the mirrors
of each other’s worlds

Search deep inside
What have we done?
Look in the mirror
yes, we’re one of them

What would it take?
Long is the restless wait
Healing our pain
Our future, our fate
Hope we embrace
This light within our hearts
