About This Track

'Mirror' by Code Orange is a 2023 metal song from the album 'The Above'. The lyrics are a pointed self-appraisal, addressing boredom, unmet hopes, and the uneasy sense that nobody will care, before turning to questions of happiness and whether anything will ever be enough. The vocal delivery, implied by the direct line of questioning, reads like a restless interrogation of the self, capped by the blunt uncertainty of “Are you happy now?”.

"Mirror" is a track by Code Orange, from the album The Above, released 27th September 2023. The track is 3:59 long. It's filed under Metal. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about Code Orange.

Lyrics

Mirror

Take a look in the mirror
Are you bored?
Is it everything and more than you ever hoped for?
'Cause it ain't fair, so unfair
And nobody's ever gonna care
They just wanna hear you talk
For a story, for the moment
Are you happy now?
Will you ever be?
Is it enough now?
Know that you'll never be
I swear I saw it all
And I'm not sure
That I found anything I want
I saw it all
And I'm not sure
That I found anything but what I never saw
A final sin
It feels so clear in the reflection
This could be what ends it all
If you believe that's what we are
'Cause were all the same
Spreading blame but covered in shame
The finger that points to what they lack
Is the same one pointing back
Are you happy now?
Will you ever be?
Is it enough now? (Is it enough now?)
Know that you'll never be
I swear I saw it all
And I'm not sure
That I found anything I want
I saw it all
And I'm not sure
That I found anything but what I never saw
Inside this factory of endless doing
Who can really spot the difference
Between the illusory world
And self re-affirmed sensation?
Sensation, yeah, sensation, sensation
I swear I saw it all
And I'm not sure
That I found anything I want
I saw it all
And I'm not sure
That I found anything but what I never saw
Sensation, sensation
Sensation, sensation, sensation
