  • At the bottom there's a stir
    And now surface is a blur
    Tell the truth like it's a joke
    And don't fix the part that isn't broke
    I know I'm just a memory
    And I know that's how it's got to be
    So tell the mirror on the wall
    'Mirror, mirror on the wall;
    There's no reflection here at all

    Mirror, mirror on the wall there's no reflection here at all.

    I'm so tired that I can't sleep
    The secrets that my secrets keep
    Down the stairway to the church
    Blackbirds hanging in the lurch
    I don't want to see my name in stone
    I tied a ribbon round a bone
    Took a ride in a yellow car
    And bought myself an old guitar
    Things ain't what they used to be
    I gotta devil after me
    Tell the mirror on the wall
    Mirror mirror on the wall
    There's no reflection here at all

    Mirror mirror on the wall there's no reflection here at all
    Mirror mirror on the wall there's no reflection here at all

    You're looking high, you're looking low
    You got something on your mind
    Did someone give you bad directions?
    Where you in the wrong place at the wrong time?
    They found a body in the river
    They found a note left in the sand
    "Leave my worries to the water
    And leave my body to the land" Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
