Subconscious strange sensation
Unconscious relaxation
What a pleasant nightmare
And I can't wait to get there againEvery time I close my eyes
There's another vivid surprise
Another whole life waiting
Chapters unfinished, fadingCloser now,
Slowly coming into view
I've arrived,
Blinding sunshine beaming throughThere's a house I'm drawn into
Familiar settings, nothing new
There's a pathway leading there
With a haunting chill in the airThere's room at the top of the stairs
Every night I'm drawn up there
There's a girl in the mirror
Her face is getting clearer
Young child won't you tell me why I'm here?In her eyes
I sense a story never told
Behinde the disguise
There's something tearing
At her soulTonight I've been searching for it
A feeling that's deep inside m
Tonight I've been searching for
The one that nobody knows
Trying to break freeI just can't help myself
I'm feeling like I'm going out of my head
Tears my heart into two
I'm not the one the sleeper thought he knewBack on my feet again
Eyes open to real world
Metropolis surrounds me
The mirror's shattered the girlWhy is this other life
Haunting me everyday
I'd break through the other side
If only I'd find the waySomething's awfully familiar
The feeling's so hard to shake
Could I have lived in that other world
It's a link that I'm destined to makeI'm still searching but I don't know what for
The missing key to unlock my mind's doorToday I am searching for it
A feeling that won't go away
Today I am searching for it
The only one I know
Trying to break freeI just can't help myself
I'm feeling like I'm going out of my head
Tears my soul into two
I'm not the one I thought I always knewI just can't help myself
I'm feeling like I'm going out of my head
Uncanny, strange Deja Vu
But I don't mind
I hope to find the truth
