See the sign up ahead it calls out your name
Its a meaningful sign but it makes no sense
Saw you pass on through with only one shoe
And a mystified mind with an angel for a guide
There's a destiny song that's meant for me
But I'm weary of the soles of my innocent feet
Like a single sight you know it's all you got
So be sure to aim true with your eyes on full view

There's nobody you can accuse
The mirror reflects the whole truth
And from inside I feel bruised
The mask that I wear is unsure
Unable to find a known cure
So I hide for evermore

I'm a passing stranger with a name I can't remember
I am going blind from the dust in my eyes
But the ground back home seems so far away
And I'm coughing up my lungs, but I know I've gotta stay
I'm moving slow with nowhere to go
I stumble on a sign: ‘one mile to dine'
It takes a little time, and I'm barely alive
But I make it with a shortage of breath

The coffee you poured me is cold
The paper I'm reading is old
And that smile is not your own.
The clothes that I wear are soaked through
I'm all out of love for you
And there's a million things I can't do

Something strangely familiar about where I am
I'm sitting next to the man with the unsteady hands
He says: ‘how are you son, were you been all week?'
I recognise his voice even in my sleep
Lord only knows what I got up to
Maybe its best for me if I just find my shoes
And confirm my suspicions for heavens sake
And pick up my trail from my front gate.

There's nobody you can accuse,
The mirror portrays the whole truth,
And from inside it's what you do

Start diggin' around and you'll find missin' for years your own life
You're better off trying not to hide
