[English]

In a mirrored room, all alone I stand

Strip away the phantom fame

Exposing all sides to see

The good and bad in me

In a mirrored room, all alone I stand

Seeing past the flesh and bone

The shame and the fear I hide

Could I show you what's inside?

Would you criticize, scrutinize

Stigmatize my pain?

Would you summarize, patronize

...

Classify insane?

...

So I stand here before you

You might judge

You might just bury me

Or you might set me free

...

In a mirrored room, talking to myself

And the voices pushing back

I'll let them inside my heart

But they'll tear it all apart

In a mirrored room, just a simple man

Naked, broken, beat and scarred

What do I really know?

That fear of letting go

Would you criticize, scrutinize

Analyze my pain?

Would you summarize, patronize

...

Classify insane?

So I stand here before you

You might judge

You might just bury me

Or you might set me

Or you might set me free

...

Go

Would you criticize, scrutinize

Ostracize my pain?

...

Would you summarize, patronize

Classify insane?

So I stand here before you

You might judge

You might just bury me

Or you might set me

Oh, please won't you set me free, yeah-yeah

...
