  • There's a ghost in the mirror
    I feel it creeping into your head
    Claiming another victim

    Is it me that you hear?
    And when the hatred rises up do you wish that I had been there?
    And there's a ghost in the mirror
    I feel it creeping up beneath me
    Holding out to my tongue

    Could it be any clearer?
    And if the Devil ain't a beast
    Then he's a bully to his loved ones

    Full throttle, full speed ahead
    And I'll move the earth around to save you
    In my head have a heart attack
    Without you, without you

    Full throttle, full speed ahead
    And the world will turn around
    It is only you and I
    Just try, just try

    There's a ghost in the mirror
    And in the loneliest of nights you can feel it coming closer
    Should've known that the fear
    Is gonna bury you beneath all the love that you held back

    And there's no hope in this mirror
    I feel it beating like the past
    Every second makes it clearer
    It's you and me in the mirror
    And I've let it go, like we've never ever been there

    Full throttle, full speed ahead
    And I'll move the earth around to save you
    In my head have a heart attack
    Without you, without you

    Full throttle, full speed ahead
    And the world will turn around
    It is only you and I
    Just try, just try

    Hold your heavy head, hold you heavy head
    And I drive up into the sky, drive into the sunrise
    Hold your heavy head, hold your heavy head upright
    Into the sky, into the sun blind
    Hold your heavy head, hold you heavy head
    And I drive up into the sky, drive into the sunrise
    Hold your heavy head, hold your heavy head upright
    Hold your heavy head, hold your heavy head upright

    Hold your heavy head, hold your heavy head
    Hold your heavy head, hold your heavy head upright

    Full throttle, full speed ahead
    And I'll move the earth around to save you
    In my head have a heart attack
    Without you, without you

    Full throttle, full speed ahead
    And the world will turn around
    It is only you and I
    Just try, just try Writer/s: DAVID ANDREW RAWLING, JAMES THOMAS GILLETT, JOE SAVINS, MICHAEL JOHN CHAPMAN, SAMUEL GEORGE DOUGLAS
