Duncan Sheik Mirror In The Heart Lyrics

Mirror In The Heart Lyrics

There is a swan white curtain

Somewhere within the sky

It's known of
every sermon

and every anguished cry

The howls of hopeless people

frightened and alone



There is a spotless silver mirror

that hangs within the moon

It's witnessed every winter

The
cities charred and ruined

The herds of homeless people

filling all
the roads



Some may pray to their mirrors

some may kneel
before the sun

Me I say there is a mirror

in the heart of
everyone



bullets paint the blue distance

the mirror's
stained from every gun

still i say that it glistens

in the heart of
everyone



And there are golden whispers

Within the
afternoon

They've held the brothers, sisters

Felt the mother's
wounds

the broken-hearted people

burying their own



Some may pray to their mirrors

some may kneel before the sun

Me
I say there is a mirror

in the heart of everyone



strike the
bell and we listen

light the candle and we're shown

the gods
themselves throwing incense

as all the world begins to glow



such a flame, such a mirror

in the heart of everyone



such
a flame, such a mirror

in the heart of everyone

of everyone

of
everyone

of everyone
