AI NO GINKARASU - Shadows in the Mirror Lyrics

I see the world through fractured glass,
Watching others live the life I'll never have.
Every smile, every glance, it's a dagger in my heart,
I'm torn apart by what I lack, it's tearing me apart.

I want what I can't have, I crave what's not mine,
In the shadow of their fortune, I'm running out of time.
The more I see their victories, the more I fall behind,
This envy burns within me, eating at my mind.

I'm lost in the shadows of the mirror,
What they have, it's all I fear.
I want it all, but it's not enough,
In the shadows of the mirror, it's always rough.

I try to find some peace, but the green grows in my eyes,
They have the life I want, and I'm drowning in their lies.
Their joy is like a poison, their smiles like a blade,
And every step they take, it deepens the charade.

I count the things they own, the things I'll never touch,
And in the depth of envy, I can never have too much.
The more I want, the less I feel, the emptier I grow,
This envy's all-consuming, and I'll never let it go.

I'm lost in the shadows of the mirror,
What they have, it's all I fear.
I want it all, but it's not enough,
In the shadows of the mirror, it's always rough.

Every dream they live, every star they reach,
Is another wound inside that I cannot breach.
I'll never see the truth, only what I miss,
Chained to this envy, lost in the abyss.

I chase their light, but it's always out of reach,
And the more I want, the further I retreat.
This envy wraps around me, squeezing every breath,
Leaving me with nothing but an empty sense of death.

I'm lost in the shadows of the mirror,
What they have, it's all I fear.
I want it all, but it's not enough,
In the shadows of the mirror, it's always rough.

Lost in the shadows...
Chasing what's not mine...
I'll never be whole...
In envy's cold design.
