Lyrics

Mirrors and Fevers

I was cold in a dream Somewhere close to the surface Between the ice and the stream There is three inches of air So I swam towards the light I let my breath get there first When I opened my eyes I saw myself in the mirror And I knew I would do like my father has done Yes, we will never break from these chains Your life's gonna course like a history book Don't be frightened of turning the page 'Cause it's all the same It will always be the same
