lyrics

On a trodden path
Where the grass don't grow
Snaked across the country
Till we built the roads
People walked to places
Not that far away
Now we live to travel
A hundred miles a day

Deep inside the mirror
I can see the real soul
Look into his eyes
Boy I don't know which way to go
Now there's a storm growing over the southern skies
The north is cold but less paralyzed
We can see the place but we don't know which way to go

Our hands have reached
For the arms of a witness
But with every touch
We beg their forgiveness
Shadow glass is hiding
What goes on inside
The pictures that you paint
Need to see the light

Deep inside the mirror
You can see the real soul
Look into those eyes
But they don't know which way to go
You've never had something so safe and assured
But it's all you've ever had and you still want more
You can see the place but you don't know which way to go

There'll come a day
When you'll lose someone
I can tell you it'll be
Harder than you can even conceive
But if you know their dreams
If you gave them a listen
They can live forever
And the love will keep givin'

Now I know you're there
Like the spray from the waterfall
And I'm floating above
Where I once stood strong and tall
And I can feel it on my hands and on my face
Where I left is just a piece of space
I can see you there like the spray from the waterfall
