Neutral - Kiss Of Muse lyrics

(Chorus) Mirror, mirror, bloody mirror on the wall Are you alive at all, cuz I can hear you call In my face, stop staring, in my head, stop yelling, I'm gonna fall I think I should break the wall with the mirror and all Everything is bright, no one in my sight No air around me but some shapes to my right I didn't reach here without putting up a fight But that night, I was cold with fright Lemme tell you the story of how I reached this site I'm a writer, not a fighter; I burn my cigarettes with a lighter Sitting everyday by the fireside beside the mirror on the wall I won't hide the fact that it wasn't small but was very tall So when I sat to write what was on my mind, in the mirror I could see my all That's all with the mirror for now I'm gonna tell you more about the why and the how As a writer I was dead, I wanted to write a song like I used to But when I sat to write, not even a word came along my mind like it used to So every day after sitting hours, thinking hard, sinking in but writing nil I pray to the gods and I pray to the muse To bless me immensely, entrust me with the power to write like no one ever could But during my prayers, I would stare in the mirror to see Another set of eyes staring directly back at me, exactly my eyes But there was something different The shape? No! The size? No! The look? No! The eyes? No! They were my eyes ditto, but they were cold, they were cold to the core As if it could take sorrow no more As if watching, waiting, waiting patiently Calling, wailing, dying inside daily (Chorus) Mirror, mirror, bloody mirror on the wall Are you alive at all, cuz I can hear you call In my face, stop staring, in my head, stop yelling, I'm gonna fall I think I should break the wall with the mirror and all And all that I was thinking got wiped one night When I was staring in the mirror, I saw a bright light I thought it was the rum, but the light dimmed down and I stared in disbelief In the mirror I could see a muse just behind me She walked up to me in her gown so green Bent down and smiled and kissed me on my cheek I wanted to speak but the words in me couldn't pa** through my teeth She said, ‘Don't worry, No need to speak This kiss I give as a gift to keep Now when I leave, you will fall asleep, but that's not all When you wake, you will just have to take A pen and a book and all the poems you wanna make Will take shape one by one and day by day Trust me this is not fake' I woke next day finding myself lying in front of the mirror itself In a blur the memories of the muse came to me from last night But did I really get a kiss of a muse or was I high and tight? I got up, grabbed a pen and a page and sat up to write And to my surprise, my pen worked at its will and my mind was climbing hills I wrote and wrote and as I wrote, my eyes looked into the mirror Again my colder set of eyes staring right back into me but I ignored My poems, they sold, my stories were selling like hot cakes from the stores Soon my rhymes made me successful And I was really glad to have prayed and be wishful The kiss of the muse was working wonders My fame reached the heavens and when people took my name, it thundered My stories were joyful, they had happy endings But as time pa**ed, my rhymes were running out fast I was growing very weak and now when I sat to write The mirror started pulling me with all its might (Chorus) Mirror, mirror, bloody mirror on the wall Are you alive at all, cuz I can hear you call In my face, stop staring, in my head, stop yelling, I'm gonna fall I think I should break the wall with the mirror and all I really should have broken it when I had the time Now I am being pulled by it and I am out of time I watch my face in the mirror as it's dragging me to it The eyes glaring at me with darkness, content It says to me, ‘Don't be afraid you fool, I'm you The other side, the darker side of you Didn't you know? The kiss of a muse came with a price You can live just half of your life. Surprised? You shouldn't be. Well now it's my turn to live the next half And it'll be I to have the last laugh I'm gonna write rhymes so dark and cold I'll become a living legend to the worlds untold, now common!' I fell off my chair and was being dragged into the gla** I dug my nails in the rug but I had nothing to clasp I screamed for help, ‘HELP!' but there was no one home I lived alone and was gonna be replaced by my clone Then at last I got pulled inside My reflection jumped out and screamed, ‘I'm free And you can never come out. Happy? Enjoy your stay!' he said and left I was left inside the shining gla**, a world so cold and shiny, I wasn't a guest Trapped forever, sealed for life, no matter how much I struggled Now he had my success, he had my fame He would often come to me with his evil look and it pained I tried to scream, I tried to break, but I could do nothing just lose in his game (Chorus) Mirror, mirror, bloody mirror on the wall Are you alive at all, cuz I can hear you call In my face, stop staring, in my head, stop yelling, I'm gonna fall I think I should break the wall with the mirror and all
