Crack in the Mirror

You say you can't remember this man she can't forget

You say that it's been too damn long time to bury the hatchet

And if it made a difference well you would say you're sorry

It really makes you wonder why you should even bother

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

All fall down

She was just a baby (seems so long ago)

Left a little crazy (seems so long ago)

Sleepy little southern state (seems so long ago)

Never heard of segregate

Never heard of segregate

Never heard of segregate

He was just a hired hand (no one's left to blame)

Daddy was a working man (it's a dirty shame)

Work took Daddy far from home (no one's left to blame)

Better hide the evidence (of a dirty little game)

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

All fall down

No one in that big, old house heard the baby cry

Hide your guilt in ignorance so no one has to lie

No one in her daddy's house heard her make a sound (now there's)

Blood on everybody's hands

Blood on everybody's hands

Blood on everybody's hands

(Gonna come around again)

He was just a hired hand (no one's left to blame)

Daddy kept him on again (it's a dirty shame)

For ten long years he watched her grow

For ten long years he watched her

Nobody would ever know the places that he touched her

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

All fall down

Now you say don't remember this man she can't forget

You say that your life must go on time to bury the hatchet

And if she was so damned afraid you're sure you would remember

Children will exaggerate

Children will exaggerate

Children will exaggerate

Children will exaggerate

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

There's a mirror in the house at the edge of town

There's a crack in the mirror

All fall down

No one can find me

No one will find me now
