Broken Mirrors

I don't know who I am I left every piece of myself somewhere in a dark room Now I lie on the floor like broken bottles Shattered and left alone in the cold the wind blew in Every single word I write I hear your voice in the hallways of this empty house These days I just don't bleed like I used to bleed I'm burning from the inside every time I see your face Tell me, what's it like being beautiful? You walk with angels at your feet Wanna steal your clothes, your hair, your face If only just for a little while You took the last thing I had My only hope at getting out of these cold black chains I don't got nowhere to run without a home And what's the good in talking if I've got nothing to say?

I don't recognize myself,

I'm not the man you love;

Behold the hurricane.

-The Horrible Crowes
