Tool – Reflection Lyrics

Nemesis heard this prayer and sent Narcissus his punishment. He came across a deep pool in a forest, from which he took a drink. As he did, he saw his reflection for the first time in his life and fell in love with the beautiful boy he was looking at, not realizing it was himself. Eventually, after pining away for a while, he realized that the image he saw in the pool was a reflection of himself. Realizing that he could not act upon this love, he tore at his dress and beat at his body, his life force draining out of him. As he died, the bodyless Echo came upon him and felt sorrow and pity. His soul was sent to "the darkest hell" and the narcissus flower grew where he died. It is said that Narcissus still keeps gazing on his image in the waters of the river Styx. (wiki'd that shit up) |

go google the story of narcissa then listen to the song again. kinda funny seeing what everyone else made of the song. it's about the ancient greek myth about narcissus seeing his own reflection in a pool by moonlight and drowning in it. drowning in his own image, his ego |
