Mirror On the Wall
by Darth Nihlus
Lyrics
Intro
Mirror on the wall
Tell me what you saw
Mirror on the wall
Tell me what you saw
(what you saw)
Mirror on the wall
Cold in the hall
I hear my name
Then I hear it crawl
Verse 1
I came in with the wrong face
Rain on my sleeves, dead weight
Three knocks in the drywall
Something in the glass wait
I blink, and it blink back
Same scar, same black cap
Same grin when the room lean
Same steps on my foot track
Phone off, but it lights up
Three missed calls from a no-name
Voice in the vent say my old thoughts
Creepin' back like a slow flame
I seen that shadow by the door crack
Seen my breath turn to smoke
Seen my own hand on the latch
While my other hand didn't let go
(let go)
Tell me who you feedin'
Tell me who you please
'Cause my reflection got a heartbeat
And it don't look like me
Pre-Chorus
Don't look now
It's right behind your eyes
Don't breathe loud
It can hear your lies
The glass bends
When I say my name
Hold that stare
Then it shifts again
Chorus
Mirror on the wall
Who do you know?
Mirror on the wall
Don't let it show
Mirror on the wall
I see you move
Mirror on the wall
I'm not alone
(not alone)
Mirror on the wall
Keep that grin
Mirror on the wall
Let me in
Mirror on the wall
Who do you know?
Mirror on the wall
Don't let it show
Verse 2
Now the hallway stretch out
Like a throat with a pulse
Every frame on the wall
Got a face that don't trust
I hear keys in the bowl
But the door never opened
Hear a laugh in the floorboards
Low and broken
My shadow got a second shadow
That ain't matching mine
Every room got a red thread
Tied around my spine
I try to pray, but the words split
Try to run, but the path shift
Mirrors in the window flash teeth
Like a cage with a black tint
I seen a hand print on the ceiling
Where the cold don't reach
Then the ceiling split open
And it started to speak
(speak)
"You're the one that's watching"
"You're the one that's near"
"You're the one that's been here"
While the mirror pulled me clear
Breakdown
Tick-tick
Static in the bone
Tick-tick
Nobody home
(hello?)
Tick-tick
Who's in the glass?
Tick-tick
Who's in the gas?
Verse 3
I woke up in a split room
Half my face on the pane
Half my voice in the vents
Half my mind in the drain
Every lie I ever told
Came back with a pulse now
Every door I ignored
Got a name on the first sound
I ain't scared of the dark
I'm scared of the part in me
That smiles when it sees fear
That knows where the heart'll be
So I covered every mirror
With a shirt and a chain
But the shadows underneath it
Still knew my name
My reflection started laughing
Like it won from the start
Then it stepped one foot out
And it wore my scar
Pre-Chorus
Don't look now
It's right behind your eyes
Don't breathe loud
It can hear your lies
The glass bends
When I say my name
Hold that stare
Then it shifts again
Chorus
Mirror on the wall
Who do you know?
Mirror on the wall
Don't let it show
Mirror on the wall
I see you move
Mirror on the wall
I'm not alone
(not alone)
Mirror on the wall
Keep that grin
Mirror on the wall
Let me in
Mirror on the wall
Who do you know?
Mirror on the wall
Don't let it show
Bridge
If I break it
Do I break me?
If I break it
Will it let me leave?
(leave me)
All these faces
Under my skin
All these voices
Tryin' to get in
The room goes still
Then the frame ignites
And I see my name
In seven lives
Breakdown
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
(ha-ha)
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Tell me what you saw
Outro
I came in with the wrong face
Rain on my sleeves, dead weight
Mirror on the wall
Tell me what you saw
I blink, and it blink back
Same scar, same black cap
Mirror on the wall
Tell me what you saw
(what you saw)
Mirror on the wall
