Queensrÿche

All alone now except for the memories
Of what we had and what we knew.
Every time I try to leave it behind me
I see something that reminds me of you.
Every night the dreams return to haunt me,
Your rosary wrapped around your throat.
I lie awake and sweat, afraid to fall asleep.

Into the eyes of a stranger.
I've always known that the mirror never lies.
People always turn away from the eyes of a stranger.
Afraid to know what lies behind the stare.

Is this all that's left of my life before me?

No happy ending like they've always promised.
There's got to be something left for me.

And I raise my head and stare into the eyes of a stranger.
I've always known that the mirror never lies.
People always turn away from the eyes of a stranger.
Afraid to know what lies behind the stare.

How many time must I live this tragedy?
How many more lies will they tell me?
All I want is the same as everyone.
Why am I here, and for how long?

And I raise my head and stare into the eyesf of a stranger
I've always known that the mirror nver lies.
People always turn away from the eyes of a stranger.
Afraid to know what lies behind the stare.
