Was it everything they told you?
|
Was it all the things they promised you?
|
Was it everything they told you?
|
Was it everything they said it would be?
|
|
Strange things move in the corner of my eyes
|
And the sky never looked so white and pretty
|
Tiny figures crawl upon my sterile flesh
|
There's a hole in the world, and it keeps getting bigger
|
|
Was it everything you hoped for?
|
Was it all the things you prayed for?
|
Was it everything you hoped for?
|
Was it everything you thought it would be?
|
|
How can you love it...
|
How can you believe it...
|
How can you need it...
|
When there's nothing there?
|
In space where the stars are dead now
|
The man in the moon still has a wicked face
|
But the more you reach for the heavens above
|
The more you'll hate your own pitiful love
|
|
Like a river flowing around me... Mirror's paradise
|
Pulling me in it's wake... Mirror's paradise
|
|
How can you love it...
|
How can you believe it...
|
How can you need it...
|
When there's nothing there?
|
I want to show you something so much better
|
I'll make the world seem a little bit deader
|
You smile... but it's all despair
|
You love... but there's nothing there
|
|
Like a river flowing around me... Mirror's paradise
|
Pulling me in it's wake... Mirror's paradise
|
