Avert Your Eyes
I look at the mirror, shattered
Pick up the pieces of my reflection
You tell me your thoughts are scattered
And hope I believe in the misdirection
In silence I close my eyes and dream
And hope that the end will come much quicker
Wait, you still want to make believe
That all of the candles still flicker
Avert your eyes
The fires will surely die
There is no higher climb
Than the jagged fingers of time
I hold these bleeding promises in broken hands
The tears in my eyes say all you need to know
Your pleading words, oh, let's try again
But the closer we get the more I feel alone
If there ever was a time
That the threads were intertwined
In the fabric of my mind
It's long been thrown aside
Pick up the pieces of my reflection
You tell me your thoughts are scattered
And hope I believe in the misdirection
In silence I close my eyes and dream
And hope that the end will come much quicker
Wait, you still want to make believe
That all of the candles still flicker
Avert your eyes
The fires will surely die
There is no higher climb
Than the jagged fingers of time
I hold these bleeding promises in broken hands
The tears in my eyes say all you need to know
Your pleading words, oh, let's try again
But the closer we get the more I feel alone
If there ever was a time
That the threads were intertwined
In the fabric of my mind
It's long been thrown aside
