Asian Dub Foundation - 1000 Mirrors lyrics

A scream, a shout far in the distance Maybe the first or second floor And curtains colouring the windows Never see behind closed doors A silent siege behind politeness Domestic harmony for show Lost in the mirage of a marriage Outside a world she'll never know And as I see through the real you I'm falling straight into a thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside, the bright lights can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Loving her children with a pa**ion Protecting them at any cost Taking the only course of action There's no more bridges left to cross Who are the ones who are the guilty? Who are the ones who wear the scars? We must not leave our sisters bleeding We sing this song for Tsoora Shah And as I see through the real you I'm falling straight into a thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside, the bright lights won't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time
