Looking at old photographs Feeling things I wish weren't true Like an incandescent bottle Wishful tears you never knew Oh who were we before We had to ask that question To know that they're the one that splits the atoms Of every living human soul And we look at the open door like a mirror The open door like a mirror The open door like a mirror You can go where you want but you can't stay here I wish that I had seen the signs The planets hardly ever align Oh we were always doing fine We're only ever doing fine So I started searching for the lie within Holding candles up to desires While light in our whole room grows dim Shadows in the shape of a pire And we look at the open door like a mirror The open door like a mirror The open door like a mirror You can go where you want but you can't stay here And the open door like a mirror Oh yeah the open door like a mirror The open door like a mirror You can go where you want but you can't stay here You can go where you want but we can't stay here We can go where we want but we can't stay here
