Exploring themes of love, disillusionment, and self-awareness, this song delves into the complexities of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics reflect the protagonist's realization that their efforts and pain go unrecognized ("No one's ever gonna give you a trophy"), highlighting an inherent imbalance in the relationship. The metaphorical imagery of being thrown out of Eden underscores feelings of betrayal and loss. Despite intense emotions ("we play hard" and "we love our love"), there's an acceptance that the romance is unlikely to endure ("our romance doesn't stand a chance"). The repeated refrain urging to "take a look in the mirror" suggests a call for introspection, both for the protagonist and their partner. Ultimately, the song captures a poignant blend of longing and resignation, acknowledging that while connections may fade, their impact lingers.
Mirror Forever
Lyrics
No one's ever gonna give you a trophy
For all the pain and the things you've been through
No one knows but you
Kinda crazy when you're looking right through me
Something forceful about yourself
Just say the word and, baby, know that I'll be there
I'm not scared
And I see it so clearly
That we play hard
Yes, we love our love
Most of all
But the time we spent
In this situation circumstance
I'll see you around
The next time you come to town
I'll see you around
The next time you call
You're a demon with a scary picture
I'm a dreamer and you're a tiger
Got a feeling our romance doesn't stand a chance
Stand a chance to last
You threw me out of the Garden of Eden
Lift me up just to let me fall hard
Can't stand being your second best
And I see it so clear
We play hard
Yes, we love our love
Most of all
But the time we spent
In this situation circumstance
I'll see you around
The next time you come to town
I'll see you around
The next time you call
Oh, baby, take a look in the mirror
Oh, baby, take a look in the mirror
Oh, baby, take a look in the mirror
Oh, baby, take a look in the mirror
And I see it so clear
We play hard
Yes, we love our love
Most of all
But the time we spent
In this situation circumstance
I'll see you around
The next time you come to town
I'll see you around
I'll see you around
I'll see you around
The next time you call
