Who is the man I see Where I'm supposed to be? I lost my heart, I buried it too deep Under the iron sea. Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball, Save us all, tell me life is beautiful, Mirror, mirror on the wall. Lines ever more unclear, I'm not sure I'm even here, The more I look the more I think that I'm Starting to disappear. Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball, Save us all, tell me life is beautiful, Mirror, mirror on the wall. Oh, crystal ball, hear my song, I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong, So put me where I belong. I don't where I am, And I don't really care, I look myself in the eye, There's no one there. I fall upon the earth, I call upon the air, But all I get is the same old vacant stare. Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball, Save us all, tell me life is beautiful, Mirror, mirror on the wall. Oh, crystal ball, hear my song, I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong, So put me where I belong.
