| This is a simple Man that is probably quite angry at the time, and looks into a mirror. He thinks, and starts to hate his situation, and talks about the image on the mirror having a better life than him, and it makes him mad. Then he notes that it is just superficial (Meaning nothings there, flat, theres nothing really in the mirror), and slows down and starts basically talking to himself refering to it was a "Shadow of a man". ---- To the people that like Fairy Tales and take it as a literal alternate reality ... look at the lyrics...It clearly notes that he is just thinking about himself. | |

| "Do you reflect me or do I reflect you?" This part of this particular song gets me every time. It's something to really really think about. | |
