Lyrics
EMPTY MIRROR I Look at this old Polaroid Don’t he look so young? Don’t that just call to you Like a song unsung? Somethin’ ‘bout the photo Something in the eye Something I don’t understand That ain’t no lie CHORUS Empty mirror at the bottom of the glass Ya disappear when livin’ in the past I can hear ya, ‘don’t have to ask Empty mirror, just before the crash Ah Hahaha Hahaha II Those eyes belong to someone Won’t tell you the truth Don’t want you around ‘em But don’t know what to do Until your arms surround him But he’ll fight you if you try ‘Something he don’t understand That ain’t no lie CHORUS Empty mirror, never gonna last Nobody steerin’, steppin’ on the gas Nobody near ya, travellin’ too fast Fallin’ off your chair, starin’ at your stash Empty mirror, funny kind of theft Shakin’ down yourself ‘til there ain’t nobody left Hallelujah – bringin’ up the dead Empty mirror, how much you wanna bet? INSTRUMENTAL BREAK CHORUS Empty mirror at the bottom of the deck Empty chambers in the middle of your chest Another stranger you can’t forget Empty mirror you ain’t seen nothin’ yet Ah Hahaha Hahaha III Here’s another shot snapped I can’t remember when With that lover who’d lock him out And then let him in ‘Wasn’t too long after Everything went South You couldn’t understand a thing Came out his mouth CHORUS Empty mirror loading up the glock All you can hear is the ticking of the clock No one’ll see you fogging up the glass Empty mirror just before the blast Empty mirror, is it too much to ask How’d we get here; where we goin’ next I barely hear you talkin’ to the deaf Empty mirror, we’ll just have to guess
