El Cuarteto de Nos El Cuarteto de Nos

Your Mirror Speaks

Look at me when I talk to you, you know who I am
We already know each other and, if you look for me, I'm always here
I’ve been for so long a solitary witness
That I believe that, at this rate, I’m your only friend
Hanging on the wall of your room I wait for you
I know that with anyone but me, you'll never be this honest
Because I don’t know how to lie, make up, nor pretend nor falsify
I only say what is and not what you want to hear

I see in your expression the unbearable noise that reigns in your head
I see when the guilt exceeds your shame
I don’t perceive, I see the love hidden in your pride
You look at me, but it’s me who sees through you
I’m the only one who looks you in the eye
The only one who’s with you when you’re left alone
The one who knows how it feels to be in your skin
Look at me when I talk to you, your mirror is speaking

I’m the only one who can hold your gaze without hesitation
I’m the only one who keeps you company after it's all ended
The only one who sees what you don’t want to show
The one who can quell your fury and your rage
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets

I watch you leave, I hear you arrive
I know when you bring problems and when you go for more
And when you're not, I know you miss me
Because you’re in cloudy waters
And in cloudy waters you can’t reflect yourself

I’m your body without heart
Your head without memory nor reason
Your veins without blood, your glands but dry
Your skin with the wounds, but with their tales empty
I’m of your soul, the mockery

I see, in your mouth, the words you never said
I see in your eye bags, the fatigue, like a cyst
I've seen you worried, with no one by your side, for quite a while now
I haven’t seen you with either good or bad company

I know that Autumn hates me because I have no nostalgia
Summer because I will never feel its warmth
Spring because I never fall in love
And Winter because I am much colder than him

I’m the only one who can hold your gaze without hesitation
I’m the only one who keeps you company after it's all ended
The only one who sees what you don’t want to show
The one who can quell your fury and your rage
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets

But there’s little I can do hanging here
I can’t correct you if you’re mistaken
Nor tell you not to sweep your sins under the rug
I'm not only your reflection, but your shadow’s as well
I have no prejudice, I don’t accept, nor do I reject
But there’s times when even I wouldn’t want to be held in your arms
Look at me, I’m here, I’m real, what you see changes
But I'm still the same, mirror and not mirage

Impenetrable, uninhabitable, I have no morals
Ideals, identity, nor credentials, limits nor thresholds
No reason for being other than to be your hideout
I only exist for you to need me

I’m the only one who can hold your gaze without hesitation
I’m the only one who keeps you company after it's all ended
The only one who sees what you don’t want to show
The one who can quell your fury and your rage
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
I’m the only one who will never reveal your secrets
