I already had lyrics stuck in my head while listening to this... Joe says, "There's another me/Chigau boku ga iru" but "On the other side of the mirror" sounds more poetic to me. But... not all of the syllables for some lines fit with the Japanese. It's not quite easy to fit in his English crest "Reliability" since it's a whopping 6 syllables. I decided to squeeze in "Honest" since Joe's Japanese crest is "Honesty".

I knew I had to take a chance when I realized
What it was I wished to do with my life
But I was satisfied to hide behind
My glasses way out of sight

"If you already know what happens in the end
Why bother to go out of your way?"
To be honest, that's what I thought
But now I know there's lots of things that I can change
With my... own hands I know~
ooh~woah ooh~woah ooh~woah

On the other side of the mirror
I'm flying over the planet Earth so blue
On the other side of the mirror
There's another me... waiting for me!
The most important thing I've learned is to believe
Go on, knock on that door... into the unknown!

(instrumental)

I knew I could take a chance and do it likewise
What I did was keep quiet, I cannot lie
But in reality I was afraid
To break rules and disobey

"If you already know your heart hurts in the end
Why bother to go out of your way?"
To be honest, I was a fool
But now I know there's things I won't ever understand
If I... never cry out loud~
ooh~woah ooh~woah ooh~woah

On the other side of the mirror
I've always hidden my heart from the start, it's true
On the other side of the mirror
There's another me... that no one sees!
Maybe you know deep down that you're a lot like me
Go on, and wake up... open up your soul!

On the other side of the mirror
I'm flying over the planet Earth so blue
On the other side of the mirror
There's another me... waiting for me!
The most important thing I've learned is to believe
Go on, knock on that door... into the unknown!
