Objects in the Mirror
11.28.76
The day that I was born, right before my parents split
And it was hard, I know, on them
When you're young raising children
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
Stubbing toes on toys, those days you'll wish were still here
They'll be objects in the mirror
1.28.86
Our eyes glued to school's only television set
No one told us, now we knew
Every dream does not come true
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
Even when they say the sky above will be clear
There will be objects in the mirror
4.1.2003
The day I said goodbye to my favorite refugee
If he came to us again
Would we even let him in?
5.13.2012
Last day I remember mama acting like herself
When the angels took her home
I was never so alone
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
When you're holding on to the hope of one more year
We're just objects in the mirror
10.2.17
Terror in Las Vegas and the ghost of Tom Petty
All these big guns in bad hands
Cannot bring back one good man
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
If fear itself is the only thing we should fear
What of these objects in the mirror?
12.31.17
Surrounded by my family, 12 o'clock on New Year's Eve
Throwing paper on the fire
Nothing else that we require
Cause a heart with no regrets
Is as good as it can get
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
There's so many things to be grateful for, my dear
All these objects in the mirror
Objects in the mirror
The day that I was born, right before my parents split
And it was hard, I know, on them
When you're young raising children
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
Stubbing toes on toys, those days you'll wish were still here
They'll be objects in the mirror
1.28.86
Our eyes glued to school's only television set
No one told us, now we knew
Every dream does not come true
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
Even when they say the sky above will be clear
There will be objects in the mirror
4.1.2003
The day I said goodbye to my favorite refugee
If he came to us again
Would we even let him in?
5.13.2012
Last day I remember mama acting like herself
When the angels took her home
I was never so alone
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
When you're holding on to the hope of one more year
We're just objects in the mirror
10.2.17
Terror in Las Vegas and the ghost of Tom Petty
All these big guns in bad hands
Cannot bring back one good man
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
If fear itself is the only thing we should fear

Nothing else that we require
Cause a heart with no regrets
Is as good as it can get
As we look back through the looking glass
Visions closer than they appear
There's so many things to be grateful for, my dear
All these objects in the mirror
Objects in the mirror
