[Silence]
[Instrumental – Reverse Piano, Glass Chimes, Low Ambient Pad]
[Intro]
[Soft Whisper, Echoed]
Is it you… or the view…?
[Glass Tap, Subtle Crack Sound]
One step closer…
[Verse 1]
You framed the world in a perfect line
Cut out the noise, called it “mine”
Edges sharp where doubt should be
Locked it down so you could see
Every answer fit the mold
Every story neatly told
Nothing left to rearrange
Truth reduced to something strange
[Pre-Chorus]
But every mirror bends the light
Just enough to feel like right
Tilt it once, then tilt again
Now you can’t tell where you’ve been
[Chorus]
Through the looking glass
(Pass)
Threw the looking glass
(Smash)
Crossed the line you couldn’t see
Now you’re stuck in what you believe
Through the looking glass
(Pass)
Threw the looking glass
(Smash)
Shattered truth into your view
Now it only reflects you
[Instrumental Break – Glass Percussion, Echo Guitar, Pulsing Bass]
[Verse 2]
Every crack became a frame
Every fracture shaped the same
Pieces pointing back at you
Like it’s all you ever knew
Voices fade that don’t align
Out of sight and out of mind
What was wide is closing fast
Trapped inside your looking glass
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t notice as it grows
How the narrow current flows
Every thought begins to bend
Toward the same familiar end
[Chorus]
Through the looking glass
(Pass)
Threw the looking glass
(Smash)
Built a world you can’t escape
Every edge a mirrored shape
Through the looking glass
(Pass)
Threw the looking glass
(Smash)
Truth is filtered, bent, and cast
On the other side you’re fast…
[Bridge – Minimal Piano, Distant Echoes]
Did you cross… or did you throw…
The only way you used to know?
Was it truth… or just the frame…
That slowly rewrote every name?
[Breakdown – Whispered, Fragmented]
Pass…
Smash…
Pass…
Smash…
[Final Chorus – Full Build, Layered Vocals, Rising Intensity]
Through the looking glass
(Pass)
Threw the looking glass
(Smash)
No return to what was clear
Only reflections drawing near
Through the looking glass
(Pass)
Threw the looking glass
(Smash)
Every shard becomes your past
And you’re living in the glass
[Outro]
[Soft Glass Tones, Fading Drone, Final Crack Sound]
Was it something you went through…
Or something that you threw…
[Silence]
