Trap of Mirrors

He wants to live inside a tree he can sleep on.
To hold him up while everyone washes away.
Only there could he get things completed.
Only there would the distractions go away.

They would set it up so they would always keep moving,
till they’d had enough and things got stale.
There was always somewhere new that seemed brighter.
There was always somewhere new to escape.

Looking everywhere, it all seems better.
Falling in a trap of mirrors.

She wants to be where she can stand beside the ocean.
To wear no shoes and have her feet in the sand.
Only there could she get herself together.
Only there would the waves take her away.
They would set it up so they would always keep moving,
till they’d had enough and things got stale.
There was always somewhere new that seemed brighter.
There was always somewhere new to escape.

Looking everywhere, it all seems better.
Falling in a trap of mirrors.

Looking everywhere, it all seems better.
Falling in a trap of mirrors.
