Look Closer...

Another tyrant falls down to the floor
But it won’t make this heavy world any better
It was broken long, long time before
Bound in the chain and the same iron letter

Just an endless smashing of the glass
Mirrors breaking all over the floor
But keep at least one as the nights pass
Keep one for yourself, behind the door

Look closer now, and you’ll see the sky (Yeah)
You’ll see the clouds as they move on high
Don’t you confuse the smoke in the air,
With the storm of truth that is waiting there

Oh, don’t mistake the black burning haze,
For the rain... that washes your face
(Yeah, washes your face)

The thrones are empty, the new kings will rise
But the shadows remain in the street
We stare at the pieces with wide open eyes
While the glass cuts into our feet

Just an endless smashing of the glass
Mirrors breaking all over the floor
But keep at least one as the nights pass
Keep one for yourself, behind the door

Look closer now, and you’ll see the sky (Yeah)
You’ll see the clouds as they move on high
Don’t you confuse the smoke in the air,
With the storm of truth that is waiting there

Oh, don’t mistake the black burning haze,
For the rain... that washes your face
(Yeah, washes your face)

The one who asks questions will find what is real
But every new truth is a weight you will feel
Just multiplying the sadness of all...
Yeah, multiplying the grief of it all...
