Lyrics
Verse 1
I look at my pose in the window
"Brother, this is too much" - my soul whispers
New shoes, something new every morning
but it doesn't make me feel any better, it's just that my check is bigger
The camera is clicking, the filter is spinning
I like the picture, but everything is gray in my head
When the likes and the sea of praise run out
who will be left then? just me and my silence
Chorus
I am the mirror king
the shoes shine, but the heart is missing
I laugh at it, but it hurts
the mask is too big and the world is too small (world)
I am the mirror king
selfie in the living room, selfie through the market
When I finally take off the ornament
it will be revealed who I am here (woah)
Verse 2
I promise, this is the last T-shirt
then I will see another one, “well, well…”
I bought a watch with more stones than brains
yet I am waiting for people to finally love me
Always at the front of the line, the newest phone
but inside the signal strength is zero, only the ego (hello)
Mom says: “son, slow down a little”
but I keep running, wink at the camera (Ahhhh)
Chorus
I am the mirror king
the shoes shine, but the heart is missing
I laugh on it, but it hurts
the mask is too big and the world is too small (world)
I am the mirror king
behind the glass wall every move hurts
If this wall slowly breaks
it will be revealed what this song hides deep inside (woah)
Bridge
What if I didn't play star today? (hey!)
What if I also laid out my mistakes?
Maybe there would be less applause
but I would have more peace, THAT'S IT!
Chorus
I am the mirror king
the shoes shine, but the heart is missing already
I laugh at it, but it hurts
the mask is too big and the world is too small (world)
I am the mirror king
I walk between the lights, my shadow pulls me back
When the glaze falls off me
then I'll see who's looking back at me (woah)
Once more!
I am the mirror king
between the screens, it flickers on my face
If I erase this light
I might disappear forever!
