And I look in the mirror
Hey man, what do ya' see?
Hear the sound of the train by the river
Cryin' out "follow me"
And the four walls knock me out of bed
Run down the street, rain on my head
Since I was a kid, always wanted to see
Now I'm faced with mortality
Yeah, I feel a greeting
Yeah, my heart's still beating
Now there's no retreating
Comin' into the mystery room
Yeah, my brain's in a free-fall
My body's in free-fall
[inaudible] inside of me is coming down on my head
Short circuited, crosswire
Up on the highwire
Hear them play that honky tonk tune
As you walk through that Mystery Room
Yeah, can you feel the gloom?
Let's stand in the Mystery Room
Yeah, [inaudible] face of fear
Live in denial, 'til we all get out of here
Medication in the hope it might disappear
If you can't see it, ya' can't feel it
Meanwhile they're playin' my tune
It's rainin' out there, but in here there's two
Big black cars, covered in [inaudible]
That's why I hide in my Mystery Room
Don't judge me
It's a moment too soon
Can't ya' hear it in the crowds [inaudible]
'Cause I'm here in my Mystery Room
Come and join us
We're here in the Mystery Room
Come and join us
We're here in the Mystery Room
Yeah, hear the greeting
Yeah, my heart's still beating
Now there's no retreating
Turn in to the Mystery Room
It's the middle of the night And I look in the mirror Hey man, what do ya' see? Hear the sound of the train by the river Cryin' out "follow me" And the four walls knock me out of bed Run down the street, rain on my head Since I was a kid, always wanted to see Now I'm faced with mortality Yeah, I feel a greeting Yeah, my heart's still beating Now there's no retreating Comin' into the mystery room Yeah, my brain's in a free-fall My body's in free-fall [inaudible] inside of me is coming down on my head Short circuited, crosswire Up on the highwire Hear them play that honky tonk tune As you walk through that Mystery Room Yeah, can you feel the gloom? Let's stand in the Mystery Room Yeah, [inaudible] face of fear Live in denial, 'til we all get out of here Medication in the hope it might disappear If you can't see it, ya' can't feel it Meanwhile they're playin' my tune It's rainin' out there, but in here there's two Big black cars, covered in [inaudible] That's why I hide in my Mystery Room Don't judge me It's a moment too soon Can't ya' hear it in the crowds [inaudible] 'Cause I'm here in my Mystery Room Come and join us We're here in the Mystery Room Come and join us We're here in the Mystery Room Yeah, hear the greeting Yeah, my heart's still beating Now there's no retreating Turn in to the Mystery Room Explain Request ×
