kathy mar - don't look in the mirror lyrics
out in the silent desert
under the hunter’s moon
the road was a ribbon of silver
winding away in the gloom
a glimpse of motion behind me
and loping behind my van
made of cactus spines and mesquite twigs
was the figure of a man
my foot came down on the pedal
i shot around a curve
then my eyes leapt to the mirror
and it almost made me swerve
the figure raced on behind me
at a distance still the same
and a bitter wind swept through my soul
a dread without a name
all through the midnight desert
silent and cold and black
the figure kept my changing pace
and never left my track
so i slowed for the wraith behind me
and stopped on an exit ramp
i locked the doors and waited there
with palms and forehead damp
a mesquite clatter filled me
and rattled my quaking heart
as catus talons caressed the gl-ss
that kept us still apart
and i turned my face to gaze out
after several fruitless tries
and my soul was bound and broken
in the hollows that were it’s eyes
i watch the taillights fading
on the silver road ahead
and the mesquite clatter fills my ears
but my heart is still and dead
i flex my cactus talons
that never will see the sun
and watch a car go racing by
and my feet began to run
words and music: kathy mar
