Here is a really powerfully driven tune with a strong sense of itself and conveying an image and theme of pure betrayal. Filled with a big chorus hook and some great twists and turns in the structure. Its a solid tune and a fitting addition to the album.

Verse 1
As the clock ticks forward on my wall
I think back to when I first started to fall for you
Now and then I ponder situations that you bought to play
But the words are empty, there’s nothing more to say
I pretend that your words count at all
Time is the devil, you know baby
Waiting for you drives me crazy!
Chorus
Now its clear that the mirror has cracked
And all that’s left is the shattered pieces of our once happy world
I force myself to forget all those sleepless nights
To wake once more with a second chance
I blink my tired eyes as my tears well up
All I want is that picture of you
All that remains is that vision of you
Verse 2
They always say that time heals all wounds
Well for me its going to take longer to get me through
I know those eyes have burnt an everlasting scar into my heart
Its harder still you know, knowing we’re apart
Knowing we’re apart
Chorus
Now its clear that the mirror has cracked
And all that’s left is the shattered pieces of our once happy world
Somewhere deep down I try to forgive you ..and
Force myself to forget all those sleepless nights
To wake once more with a second chance
I blink my tired eyes as my tears well up
All I want is that picture of you
All that remains is that vision of you
Bridge
Why has the mirror cracked?
Why could our love not have last?
Its painful to face the truth
The truth between me and you
Chorus x 2
Now its clear that the mirror has cracked
And all that’s left is the shattered pieces of our once happy world
Somewhere deep down I try to forgive you ..and
Force myself to forget all those sleepless nights
To wake once more with a second chance
I blink my tired eyes as my tears well up
All I want is that picture of you
All that remains is that vision of you
