MAN IN THE MIRROR

"Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond You rape all the world for nothing You made fire and curse the flame You suck dry the fount of wonder You turn sorrow into hate A lone wolf, a walking carcass A sore sight for putrid eyes What doesn't kill you makes you fouler A dying whore by heaven's gate We took the bait The big millstone slowly turning You make mud from hidden gold You weigh down and crush my spirit For every step of the road Your dead lips embrace deception My head filled with wasted words You kill what you can't devour You wanna drown me in a lake of filth Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond We lost the race. And then you spat right in our face. A mouth open, flies ascending A paradise of empty souls The black skies an empty ocean It took the wink of an eye For our pleasant tree of knowledge A long shadow touches death Lose sight of a broken promise And in a moment nothingness descends Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond Cry for the man in the mirror See his empty eyes, where nothing lies beyond"
