Testo di Shadow Common to Us All

Every mirror lies once Before showing who I am There's a face I hide from myself That only appears when the lights go out Everyone carries a dark twin Pretending that part isn't mine, that it's nothing Two halves sharing the same body The one I show and the one I lock away The more I deny it, the more it grows The more I run, the more it knows where I belong Everyone has a second face Pretending there's only one A shadow common to us all The part no one shows in the mirror I gave it room to grow Pretending it lived far from my reflection It's not a monster, it's just what I deny Of the worst I carry inside The more I hide it, the heavier it gets The more I pretend, the deeper it settles One day that shadow knocks on the door And demands rent for a whole lifetime of being ignored A shadow common to us all The part that no one shows in the mirror I gave it room to grow Pretending it lived far from my reflection It's not a monster, it's just what I deny Of the worst I carry inside There's no use running from what's mine Every shadow needs a place to grow Either I face what I try to hide Or I carry this weight until I can no longer live A shadow common to us all The part no one shows in the mirror I gave it room to grow Pretending it lived far from my reflection It's not a monster, it's just what I deny Of the worst I carry inside Every mirror lies once Before showing who you are
