through the looking glass

• symphony x şarkısı, üç bölüm halinde, sözleri de şöyle:
  [part ı:]
  look to the other side, reach the undefined
  curious to what she doesn't know
  step through the empty air, reveal what wasn't there
  a fantasy-her looking glass world
  
  ıs it as it seems? or just a dream within a dream
  (dream within, dream within a dream)
  
  like she's been here before, locked behind the door
  held within the grasp of mystic hands
  everything's so strange, the same but rearranged
  through a bird's eye view-can it all be true?
  
  the final answer she seeks, with the three to be crowned queen
  essence of rule divides the land-yeah!
  
  dark shape, above in the sky, captures her prismatic eye
  again she walks in wonder, with no, with no tearful good-byes
  
  [part ıı:]
  alice...alice...run alice...run
  
  and there she stood, in mystery
  searching for the final ring within
  a dream, (dream within a dream)
  
  dream within a dream
  
  "ı'm not afraid..."
  
  [part ııı:]
  scepter in hand-all the numbers so deceiving
  the small dreaming child who wears the crown
  watches the pieces falling down
  
  like knights in the game-her next move is so unsure
  'waken the queen of nevermore
  hidden behind the royal doors
  
  white on her right, red on her left
  talking in riddles, on ears fallen deaf
  
  "stop with all the lies", all the questions so confusing
  answer the riddles they deny, losing hope, the child cries
  
  dream on...
  do you believe...all the things that you're seeing are true?
  the start's where the end's leading you
  do you believe...all's as twisted as one would perceive?
  seek the answers...and soon you'll believe
  
  the royal child, in a rage of desperate fury
  shattering all that lies before, screaming dolls fall to the floor
  now remove the masque, that's obscuring this dimension
  ıllusions so clear to me now, her invention is unwound
  
  escape the dream- like an unwritten book
  there at my feet-lies the knight, the queen and the rook
  
  dream on...
  do you believe...all the things that you're seeing are true?
  the start's where the end's leading you
  do you believe...all's as twisted as one would perceive?
  seek the answers...and soon you'll believe
  
  dream on...
  do you believe...all the things that you're seeing are true?
  the start's where the end's leading you
  do you believe...all's as twisted as one would perceive?
  seek the answers...and soon you'll believe
• the libertines şarkısı, sözleri de şöyle:
  
  ın the morning there's a buzz of flies
  between the pillows and the skies
  that beg into your eyes
  through the looking glass
  and between your thighs
  and it's written no small surprise
  theat we'll go straight down the rabbit hole
  there we go
  ı've been meaning to tell you
  a sentimental thing that occured to me
  ı've been wanting to show you
  a set of photographs
  that'll make you laugh and smile
  you might wanna stick one on his nose
  around his teeth, down this drug hole of him
  with nowhere else to go
  lalalalala...
  a sentimental thing
  a sentimental thing
  a sentimental thing

• the monkees şarkısı, sözleri şöyle:
  you call my name then you run for protection
  i reach out to hold ya' but it's just a reflection
  throught the looking glass
  now you've been looking at your life through a mirror
  it's time you started seeing things a little bit clearer than
  through the looking glass
  watch me break through, girl
  i still love you, girl
  i think you love me by the way you come on girl
  then i turn away for a minute, you're gone girl
  through the looking glass
  ahh...
  you're looking through me
  like you never knew me
  i've got some things that i'm tryin' to show ya
  but you fade away how can i get to know 'ya

• "in a wonderland they lie, dreaming as the days go by, dreaming as the summers die:
  ever drifting down the stream -- lingering in the golden gleam -- life, what is it but a dream?"
  
  - lewis carroll, through the looking glass
• twilight in olympos albümündeki üç bölümlük symphoby x şarkısıdır. gayet güzel akıcı ve melodik bir şarkıdır, ikibinlerin ilk yıllarının güzel zamanlarını hatırlatır.
• lewis carrollın alice harikalar diyarındanın başarısının ardından çıkardığı ve türkçe'ye aynanın içinden olarak çevirilen kitabı. kitap, geçen seferki tavşan deliğinden farklı olarak bu sefer alice'in evindeki bir aynanın içinden geçerek kendini her şeyin tersinden aktığı bir evde bulmasıyla başlayan maceralarını anlatmaktadır. en az ilk kitap kadar ilgi çekici, ancak ondan daha egzantrik ve gizemlidir.
