Lyrics

Looking in the looking glass
Is that a person there?
His face is drawn his eyes are downcast
In the distant past
Is there a lesson there?
The lesson is it ain't gonna last

If I had my day
I'd burn down the factories
That sicken me and make the weather gray
If I had my way
I'd tear down the memories
I'm chicken and I wanna run away

Hey there do you understand
Why I hold a dagger in my hand?
Hey there do you understand
Why I hold a trigger in my hand?

Upon distant sands
The waves fall heavily
Feels heavy like my head in my hands
What I don't understand
You keep calling back on me
You kick me out yet you keep me in demand

The other day you looked the other way
Hey, hey I need to get away
The other day you looked the other way
Hey hey you tried to get away
