The Edge, Part 2... (The Looking Glass) Lyrics

Album: The Edge

Is this what you are

Is this what you have become

Reflections of your demise

All the things - made for kings

You'll find them here

The people too -  they'll bleed for you

You've made that clear

Look one time at your reflection

A broken looking glass what you've become

We all wonder what's in the conscience of the king

Does he think of the dead or the heroes gone

Has he a life does he think of everything

Is he hurt by the world, does he live on the edge

Placate the sinners

Vanity is all around you

Blood leaves stains for life

All the men - They can't defend your stratosphere

Suddenly - out from the calm

You feel the fear

Another glance at your reflection

The looking glass will now look back at you

Sire do you know what it is to be alone

Can you ever be yourself, is it hard to be

What is heaven like, what's it like to live your life

Is it everything it's all made out to be

Sovereign we're alive and we're here to save your life

Tell us what to do here your majesty

Should we wield the sword, should we fight for you my lord

What's the matter paramount can't you speak

We all wonder what's in the conscience of the king

Does he ever think of us does he hear our song

Regal do you know what it is to be alone

We will always pray for you in your kingdom on the edge
