Too the Summit, above the hills, between your demons and the pain you feel. As you wash away torture, but it's seductive still. And I'll kneel at the foot of God, but he can't redeem a thing i've done. Everything that I've become, it's too far gone. So i'll look back, at the track, I drew. Desert footprints in stolen shoes. A diamond sunset falling down from the sky with Heaven's vultures circling round my mind And from the solitude,  that I fed. Pain and death laid in bed. In the Vacuum of my open eyes, as I blanket visions at the bloodshot sky. And i'll kneel at the foot of God, but he can't redeem a thing i've done. Everything that I've become, it's too far gone. And i'll be led by the hand of God, and tune I'll my heartstrings of all his chords. Everything that i afford of being worn down. Blinded by the sound  In all my letters, I'll sign off my name, as the one who robbed freedom from the fame of the indecent and bastard child of pain, who sawpped patriotism for culture without thought or shame. And i'll kneel at the foot of God, but he can't redeem a thing i've done. Everything that I've become, it's too far gone.

So you wanna try something  Little different now Wanna chase the horizon Until the road you walk runs out And if it can’t satisfy All those feelings inside You know you gotta wait down by the river bank Until the changing of the tied Don’t go Looking for something If your scared of what you’ll find Don’t be lead by something unless the cards you play are blind Unless you play them blind The man in the mirror It’s like calling to the wind Spitting songs all over your face Or tracking down an enemy Even though it’s you that’s digging your own grave Two illusions One deaf one blind The planet in destruction at the cause of all man kind Never wanted for nothing Don’t need something else Can’t take no advice Until I find something else So don’t go running out of ideas too soon Cause it’ll be the man in the mirror That’ll have you howling at the moon The man in the mirror So pace yourself for the winter  Cause you know all seasons change You speak of your wisdom But you can’t look at your own face Every time it reaches a crescendo  You walk out the room You’ve got a little black book with my name in And you keep me on a silver spoon Postcard for sale Twenty cent my friend and I can’t write home There’s no blood left in my pen There’s thunder on the mountain And a shipwreck on the sea So I’ll wear this disguise For everyone to see So don’t go Running out of ideas too soon Cause it’ll be the man in the mirror That’ll have you howling at the moon The man in the mirror You see the man in the mirror

Down the hall Me against myself Push and pulled  To be something else Staring in the mirror Burdened with a smile Forgetting all the reasons For the conflict in my eyes God god  I recite the same old lines Hold them against me ‘Cause they’re heavy on my mind I’ve been a preacher I’ve been preached upon Found forgiveness My hand on my heart  ‘Know I swear good god I’m hear and I’m singing that same old song All you ever gave me  Was the confidence to shine But then I did it to myself again Took it from your smile And all I ever needed Was a hand to hold A rock in hard water or some medicine for the soul Good god I recite the same old lines Hold them against me ‘Cause they’re heavy on my mind Good god I recite the same old lines  Hold them against me ‘Cause they’re heavy on my mind The city is on fire In an arrogant charm And from the place you’re sitting there’s no reach from the laws long arm And in patience it’s perfect But emotionally flawed As we scream at each other From the dealers back bed board Good god I recite the same old lines Hold them against me ‘Cause they’re heavy on my mind Good god I recite the same old lines  Hold them against me ‘Cause they’re heavy on my mind Good god
