Trying to keep it busy My mind keeps on thinking Walking down an endless hallway Door after door is all I see Close my eyes and take my pick Open a door to mirrored room Blank stares become an evil glare Touch a mirror and it ripples like water Door slams shut and the mirrors begin to flow A crashing sound I can hardly bare Reach for the door but it is gone Reflections laughing through the broken glass With water rising and no way out Take a shard of glass to dig through the wall Digging and scraping cutting through my hands Reflections laughing louder through all my struggle Blood in the water with which they feed Through the bleeding and pain continue digging through the wall Penetrating through the wall with one last gasp The pressure of water forces the wall to crumble Spilling into the hallway with different doors to choose
