[Thurston] time takes its crazy toll and how does your mirror grow you better watch yourself when you jump into it 'cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul I wonder how it came to be my friend that someone just like you has come again you'll never, never know how close you came until you fall in love with the diamond rain throw all his trash away look out he's here to stay your mirror's gonna crack when he breaks into it and you'll never never be the same look into his eyes and you can see why all the little kids are dressed in dreams I wonder how he's gonna make it back when he sees that you just know it's make-belief blood crystalized as sand and now I hope you'll understand you reflected into his looking glass soul and now the mirror is your only friend look into his eyes and you will see that men are not alone on the diamond sea sail into the heart of the lonely storm and tell her that you'll love her eternally time takes its crazy toll mirror fallin' off the wall you better look out for the looking glass girl 'cause she's gonna take you for a fall look into his eyes and you shall see why everything is quiet and nothing's free I wonder how he's gonna make her smile when love is running wild on the diamond sea
