Mirrors Lyrics

They go to church on Sunday

At a chapel on the hill

They go to work on Monday

That's how they pay the bills

Somewhere between the spaces

They find their piece of mind

The reflection of lost places

Just a mirror growing blind

They champion all the causes

That keep them barely sane

The avalanche, it pauses

On this trite suburban lane

Somewhere between the spaces

They find what they can find

In the strange familiar faces

In the mirror growing blind

Is that you

Is that me

Is this what we're supposed to be

Is it blank, is it null

Is it beating on your skull

Is it strange the way this ball of yarn unwinds

In the mirror of our minds

Did they ask you to leave last Thursday

Did they pack up all your things

In a cardboard box with your antique clocks

And three sets of wedding rings

Somewhere between the spaces

There's a contract we once signed

That time somehow erases

From a mirror growing blind

The sunsets on the floodplain

The wildlife gnaw their kill

If I wasn't insane

I'd be sure that I was I'll

Somewhere between the spaces

As the crossroads twist and wind

I see a shadow that displaces

Another mirror growing blind
