The song is about how a man has a reoccurring nightmare symbolizing depression from the monotony of his life. The dream depicts a paradox created by two mirrors reflecting off each other, one mirror representing the past and the other the future, symbolizing that his past and future are the same, unchanging and meaningless. His dreams being in black and white symbolize the figurative lack of color in his life, there is nothing interesting in his life. The phrase "I only dream because I'm alive" takes a double meaning of the word dream; dreams can mean our hopes and desires, and they are also a natural part of our sleep cycle. This line shows that he has no more desires, no more hope, no more meaning to his life. The end of the song shows that he has fallen into depression, the song is just a metaphor for depression.
Sounds more like a lucid dream concerning the egos relation to eternity and its lack of understanding of the experience. The title "Dream of Mirrors" is a hook with two meanings but clearly sharing the same origin. Dreams are mirror as we examine this in light of our Jungian analysis concerning dream interpretation. If someone dreams in black and white it is actually the relation between the unconscious (black) and conscious (white or light). The dream may seem like a nightmare to the undeveloped mind but it would later make sense. That's my interpretation off the top of my...

" lack of color in his life, there is nothing interesting in his life...." Might apply without a broader scope of the content and what the writers are relating.
"I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I'm alive
I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself"
"Have you ever felt the future is the past, but you don't know how?
A reflected dream of a captured time, is it really now, is it really happening?"
According to Carl Jung and many others these lyrics clearly paint the picture of what I just related. It's an excepted fact in the dream analysis community dreams are the reflection of the unconscious and the way it speaks to the conscious in mirrored archetypes. When you look into a mirror what you see is actually inside out. In reality there is no such thing as a nightmare. It might seem like a nightmare because it confuses the conscious.

@Ganondox The reply was the reason you were wrong... Guess you just didn't get true intellectualism. That song is about letting go not mental illness or suicide.
