Time after time 
we hear the world’s cry 
No matter how we try
we’re always one step behind
This is the way we live. 
These are the hands that give
There’s a face in the mirror
The eyes of a stranger

You can burn yourself 
if you fly too close to the sun that shines so bright
You can turn away 
or decide to stay where the darkness takes over the light

We are weakened by the virus 
And there’s nothing we can feel
If this will be our last song? 
I welcome you to the real 
So this is the way we live
These are the hands that give
There’s a face in the mirror
And mirror never lies
