The Looking Glass

Tobias Sammet

Drawn by the sound
Of that wild raving pound
No one has told me
I gotta know all
About hell and below
They never told me

The quest for nexus
In your life
And for all that's beyond

When I gaze at the man
Who is gazing at me
When I stare into the looking glass
When I ask what he sees
Then I'm asking for more and the
More that I wanna know
I know what I'll never know

From far away
From the state of decay
You've come to wisdom
Many've been led
Into madness instead
Toll of my kingdom

The quest for nexus
Has brought many men
Of genius to insanity

When I gaze at the man
Who is gazing at me
When I stare into the looking glass
When I ask what he sees

Then you're asking for more, and
The more that you wanna know
You know what you'll never know

As long as you long for the whole
You can't get a part of at all
How proud would
The buildings of Rome
Look without a single stone

When I gaze at the man
Who is gazing at me
When I stare into the looking glass
When I ask what he sees
Then I'm asking for more and the
More that I wanna know
I know what I'll never know
