Mirror 歌詞

I took the safe road, I took the easy road It looked so safe and comforting There wasn't any trouble as far as I could see. Avoided the twisty road, Avoided the unknown, My daddy said that was the devil's way And God don't work in mystery noways. Though I keep on trying to believe that there's an end to all this pain I just keep moving on, I can't stop to think too long, oh no. Though I keep on trying to believe that there's a way to be set free I just keep losin' hold of the things that once gave me relief. Got married in the winter, gave birth in the summer In five years' time I had five young ones But there was something missing, there was something wrong. One day my husband came back from town Said honey, you better sit down There's been another woman for all this time She's my one true love, can't get her from my mind Now I break my back from crack of dawn It's midnight when I get home There never seems to be enough to eat And I listen to my children cry themselves to sleep. Though I keep on trying to believe that there's an end to all this pain I just keep moving on, I can't stop to think too long, oh no. Though I keep on trying to believe that there's an end to all this pain I just look in the mirror and I know I only have myself to blame. I took the safe road, I took the easy road But I learned there is no safety there You gotta push against the current to get somewhere.
