lyrics

I told you once, I told you twice
You must be bold, you must be wise
You’re repeating the same mistakes, you‘re going nowhere
In the Rodeo of hell, you ride a carousel

Always a victim of circumstances
You never, never took your chances
Now you are sitting on your throne of judgment, oh how dare you
What else to tell you, well, I don’t deserve you

Betrayals are overestimated
Conspiracies are deadly overrated
I don’t give advices so take it as an exception
A simple act of reflection, maybe will change your perception

Come on take a look in the mirror, it’s free
Responsibly
Don’t you think it’s time to look in the mirror

Come on take a look in the mirror to see
Fatefully
You are part of this mess, a small-time hero

We both know that you never care
Still you’re indignant cause the world is unfair
No matter how worried you look you ain’t gonna fool me
You don’t rule me, no you can’t school me

You have to be much better than that
Stop acting like a spoiled brat
Can’t you see it's the end of a world that we have never owned
But we must go on, life can’t be postponed

Come on, take a look in the mirror, it’s free …
