Of my life before me
People always turn away
From eyes of a stranger
Afraid to know what
I've always known that the mirror never lies
Into the eyes of a stranger
I lie awake and sweat, afraid to fall asleep
Why am I here, and for how long
People always turn away
Your rosary wrapped around your throat
How many more lies will they tell me
I see something that reminds me of you
Afraid to know what
There's got to be something left for me
I've always known that the mirror never lies
Afraid to know what
Lies behind the stare
Into the eyes of a stranger
And I raise my head and stare
From eyes of a stranger
Every night the dreams return to haunt me
Lies behind the stare
No happy ending like they've always promised
Of what we had and what we knew
From eyes of a stranger
And I raise my head and stare
I see your face looking back at me
Everytime I try to leave it behind me
How many times must I live this tragedy
People always turn away
Straight-jacket memories, sedative highs
And I raise my head and stare
Is this all that's left
All I want is the same as everyone
Into the eyes of a stranger
I've always known that the mirror never lies
