Life In A Mirror Lyrics - Singles - Dreamgale

A messenger from the Western front 

Reports the battle was a human hunt. 

We drew back, 

He says and tries his best to dismount. 

In a distant land the prince laid his hands upon 

Many years ago, the rebellion rages on. 

Your Highness, please, you have to send more troops! 

Your army lies out scattered in minor groups. 

We wont hold much longer 

Your Highness, send more troops! 

Theyve been doing their best 

To protect their conquest. 

It was all so long ago, 

But it feels so close. 

Were all going through 

Another self composed 

Reflection of our history. 

So long ago 

Advisors told him there were other ways. 

We lost a thousand men in seven days, 

Give them back their lands before 

They turn into a blaze! 

Wasting all the arms and men is inefficient, 

Considering the size of the province. 

But for the prince retreat was not a tack. 

He knew but one way of giving back. 

Gather up his forces, 

And lead them to attack. 

We will sacrifice anything 

For the sake of the pride of our nation. 

It was all so long ago, 

But it feels so close. 

Were all going through 

Another self composed 

Reflection of our history. 

So long ago 

We're in the mirror of the past. 

We repeat every move, 

Every forgotten mistake. 

It was all so long ago, 

But it feels so close. 

Were all going through 

Another self composed 

Reflection of our history. 

So long ago
