Take 1

(Verse 1)

In una casa de espejos, I reside

Tantos rostros, nowhere to hide

Un pequeño one clutches un faded bear

Whispering secrets I can't quite compartir

Then un tiger's rage, a protective growl

A silent promise, a sacred vow

To shield the niño from the coming storm

A different self to keep the cuerpo warm

(Chorus)

They call us alters, ecos del pasado

Fragmentos of a soul que was shattered and cast

Into los winds of a long y silent war

Each one a shield, a lock, un bolted door

We are a chorus, una cacofonía of "we"

A fractured reflection for el mundo to see

Living una vida in borrowed time y space

A different person, a different nombre, un different face

(Verse 2)

There's una snake en el corner, sleek and sly

Born of bindings, כאשר I couldn't cry

Told I had no limbs, no way to flee

So a part of me aprendió a slither free

And the one who holds all of el pain and shame

The persecutor, מי whispers my name

A twisted echo of an abuser's voice

Leaving me con una terrifying choice

(Chorus)

They call us alters, ecos del pasado

Fragmentos of a soul que was shattered and cast

Into los winds of a long y silent war

Each one a shield, a lock, un bolted door

We are a chorus, una cacofonía of "we"

A fractured reflection for el mundo to see

Living una vida in borrowed time y space

A different person, a different nombre, un different face

(Bridge)

But en los quiet moments, in the dead of night

We start to listen, אנו start to unite

The animal parts, los niños, and the strong

Learning las words to a brand new song

A song of healing, una song of hope

A way to untangle this intricate rope

To build a bridge from "then" to "now"

To make una promise, a solemn vow

(Chorus)

They call us alters, ecos del pasado

Fragmentos of a soul que was shattered and cast

Into los winds of a long y silent war

Each one a shield, a lock, un bolted door

We are a chorus, una cacofonía of "we"

A fractured reflection for el mundo to see

Living una vida in borrowed time y space

A different person, a different nombre, un different face
