Mirror, Mirror

Salt pouring on an open wound
Fingers scratching in a blackboard room
Six murdered in one afternoon
Take away the looking-glass

Pin pushed into a child’s balloon
Babies crying in deserted rooms
Dark figure coming all too soon
Take away the looking-glass

           Mirror, mirror on the golden wall
           Who’s the fairest of them all?
           Mirror, mirror may you never fall
           Seven years against us all

Black cat crosses your path at night
Engine failure on a one-way flight
Dream falling from an endless height
Take away the looking-glass

Drill grinding in-between your teeth
Unknown footsteps echo out of reach
Too scared to peek out from the sheets?
Take away the looking-glass

           Mirror, mirror on the golden wall
           Who’s the fairest of them all?
           Mirror, mirror may you never fall
           Seven years against us all
