[Verse 1]
There's blood on the walls, this town
Some screams have no sound
Been around the world for love
You been around the world for love

The violence in the silence
The flowers in your hair
Hang on to yourself, babe
Hang on to yourself, babe

[Chorus]
It's all so temporary
Change is like the rivers running through the mountains
Your heart was a sanctuary
Now it's just a mystery to me

[Verse 2]
This will pass, it's just like suicide
Don't give it up, you got to make it alive
It's nothing but a car chase, babe
Nothing but a mind gone crazed

Trouble in spades, yeah
At 75 miles per hour
Hang on to yourself, babe
Hang on to yourself, babe
[Chorus]
It's all so temporary
Change is like the rivers running through the mountains
Your heart was a sanctuary
Now it's just a mystery to me

A house of mirrors
A house of mirrors
A house of mirrors

[Bridge]
Made my way to the city, oh
There was no one around, oh
I remember you so beautiful
I remember you so down, down

[Chorus]
It's oh so temporary
Change is like the rivers running through the mountains
Your heart was a sanctuary
Now it's just a mystery to me

A house of mirrors
A house of mirrors
