Lyrics

Words and music by Kim Baker

I looked into the mirror of your eyes
And all that I could see, was the bloodshot and the lies
The stretched steel barrel points right at your head
Your own gripped tight muscles, could lead you straight to your death
She holds on tightly to her book
And all of its answers, within each hook
I guess this means that all of my friends are going to hell
I'd rather be there in the red, than in some tiny privileged cell
And I realize that it all leads back to just one thing
All of my wounds connected by a string
When you kicked in that door, it collapsed my heart
Burning my veil of innocence into the dark
I'll always be haunted in my sleep
By a chasing demon, down a cedar street
When, oh when, will they leave me alone
To face these aggressors, those tortured souls
And I realize that it all leads back to just one thing
All of my wounds connected by a string
When you kicked in that door, it collapsed my heart
Burning my veil of innocence into the dark
And I realize that it all leads back to just one thing
All of my wounds connected by a string
When you kicked in that door, it collapsed my heart
Burning my veil of innocence into the dark
I looked into the mirror of my eyes
And all that I could see, was the bloodshot and the lies
The stretched steel strings calm the demons in my head
I hold on tightly onto all that has been said
