Lyrics

Growling Vocals

The priest got up

and shook his robe

said "Lord

I'm gonna dance

till I find the door"

But the door

was a mirror

and the mirror

was a door

and the floor

was a sermon

that nobody

wore

A priest dancin

in a hall of mirrors

one step forward

and a thousand steps near

A priest dancin

in a hall of mirrors

the hymn's got a echo

and the echo's got a fear

Verse 2

He raised his hand

to bless the glass

and the glass raised a hand

right back

said "brother

you ain't blessin

you ain't savin

you're just

wavin

at a pack

of yous"

A mirror is a witness

that never tells the truth

a truth is a mirror

that never shows your youth

A dance is a prayer

that your knees don't understand

and the hall

oh the hall

is a hundred

holy

hands

HANDS. HANDS. AIN'T GOT NO PLANS.

The priest spun left

the priest spun right

every priest in the mirror

spun left

spun right

And he couldn't tell

which one

was the one

who got up

this mornin

and which one

was the one

who never

went to bed

He danced till the candles

forgot how to burn

he danced till the pews

took a wrong

took a wrong

took a wrong turn

And the last thing he saw

before the mirrors

all went blind

was a thousand priests

dancin

in a thousand

kinds

of mind

A priest dancin

in a hall of mirrors

one step forward

and a thousand steps near

A priest dancin

in a hall of mirrors

the hymn's got a echo

and the echo's got a fear
