    LYRICS
    In a mirrored room
    All alone I stand
    Strip away the phantom fame
    Exposing all sides to see
    The good and bad in me
    In a mirrored room
    All alone I stand
    Seeing past the flesh and bone
    The shame and the fear I hide
    Could I show you what’s inside?
    Would you
    Criticize, scrutinize
    Stigmatize my pain?
    Would you
    Summarize, patronize
    Classify insane?
    So I stand here
    Before you
    You might judge
    You might just bury me
    Or you might set me free
    In a mirrored room
    Talking to myself
    And the voices pushing back
    I’ll let them inside my heart
    But they’ll tear it all apart
    In a mirrored room
    Just a simple man
    Naked, broken, beat, and scarred
    What do I really know?
    That fear of letting go
    Would you
    Criticize, scrutinize
    Analyze my pain?
    Would you
    Summarize, patronize
    Classify insane?
    So I stand here
    Before you
    You might judge
    You might just bury me
    Or you might set me
    Or you might set me free
    Would you
    Criticize, scrutinize
    Ostracize my pain?
    Would you
    Summarize, patronize
    Classify insane?
    So I stand here
    Before you
    You might judge
    You might just bury me
    Or you might set me
    Oh, please won’t you set me free

      Interesting comparison. The way Mirrors explodes into dual guitar harmonies near the end, that does give me a majestic soaring sensation much like the "stop breathing and dedicate to me!" section of Spit Out the Bone.

    In 2018 I lost my dear brother unexpectedly and tragically.
    Before that tradegy we would both skip work anytime a new Metallica album would come out. From Load to Hardwired- we would both take off a day from our jobs to immerse ourselves in the latest Metallica release.
    My brother had no musical background, but he adored harmonized guitars from Metallica- think Orion or Misery. For whatever reason you guys would touch his soul with those harmonized guitars. He should say that it "punched him in his gut". He had an excellent ear for epic melodies.
    While listening today at the harmonized parts I was reminded that my brother would have loved this tune.
    I wept like a baby for the first time since he passed while listening to this track.
    I doubt this would ever reach the band, but today because of this song his son and I decided to finally spread his ashes.
    I have a deep connection with the Thin Lizzy "Black Rose" in regards to my now passed Mother. Now I can say I have a bit of closure that I desperately needed for my brother because if this song.
    I know he would say, "damn that sounds good" in regards to those harmonized guitars and double drum beats.
    I thank Metallica for giving me a little peace regarding my brother's passing.
    Thank you so much. He would have loved this song. His son and I will play it when we spread his ashes.
    I would give anything to listen to this with him. I have hope that will be reality one day.
    Thank you guys for giving me an epic melodious harmony that will continoulsy remind me of my dear brother... his name was Eddie and he loved Metallica.❤

This is the spirit of their song composition for me. It's one of the things I love about Spit out the Bone from the 4:00 minute mark. And then the ending harmony was fucking fantastic. I don't dislike the album by any means, but this is the only song I wish was longer. I feel like some of the songs have the Death Magnetic curse of going just a bit too long, and this one is cut short despite being brilliant.

    I was convinced Chasing Lights was my favorite, but Room of Mirrors takes the place. Awesome jam, just perfect

    Metallica will always have a special place in my heart ❤ they also got me through some of the worst times in my life and I will be forever grateful to them!! Also…. Why does James keep getting better and better with age!?!? 😅

      They're 'something' you always can rely on. At least, they make me capable to escape from a wicked world that is sometimes to much for me, as the anxiety gets too strong to cope with. And then, just sink into the 'Metallica-cocoon', which feels like coming home but even better, is such a relief. It's better than any therapy for me so far to be honest.

    1:24 aint gonna lie, the way Robert Trujillo looks like in these shots animated, they made him pretty buff to the point where he starts to look like the singer of Dethklok lol especially in the Awaken video

    The minute I heard those harmonized guitars in the end, I had a huge smile on my face.
    This song has sprinkles of 80's Metallica in it.

    This is one of their best albums, period. Maybe its hard for us old timers and metal heads to admit because their old material is legendary, but considering the circumstances, where they have been and their age, this is a masterpiece. They deserve all the credit and respect.

      @@vinceyrankings yup. If it only had a distinct killer riff instead of power cord strumming it would be one of the greatest they've done. Now its just a strong song :D

    what i think is pretty cool about the end is not just the fantastic harmony and the last "set me free", but when he sings that, you see the padded room start spinning, and later on it shows James going crazy in there trying to get out, with that riff playing i think its a super cool moment
