Mirror Mirror Lyrics

Far, far beyond the island
We dwelt in shades of twilight
Through dread and weary days

    This song, inspired by J.R.R Tolkien's stories of Middle-earth.

They've forgotten that the true hope for their salvation lies "beyond the coast", in the West, with the Valar, the lords of Arda.
