Lyrics

(Source: as heard)

A scream, a shout far in the distance,
Maybe the first or second floor,
A curtain's colour in the windows;
Never seen behind closed doors.
A silent sage behind politeness,
Domestic harmony for sure.
Lost in the mirage of a marriage,
Outside, a world she'll never know.
And as I see through the real you,
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors; I can't hide.
And outside, the bright lights
Can't hide the pain inside,
And I'm broke in a thousand mirrors.
Now it's time,
Now it's time,
Now it's ti-i-i-ime.
Loving her children with a passion,
Protecting them at any cost.
Taking the only course of action;
There's no more bridges left to cross.
Who are the ones who are the guilty?
Who are the ones who wear the scars?
We must not leave our sisters bleeding.
We sing this song for Tsoora Shah.
And as I see through the real you,
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors; I can't hide.
And outside, the bright lights
Won't hide the pain inside,
And I'm broke in a thousand mirrors.
Now it's time,
Now it's time,
Now it's ti-i-i-ime.
(Indian singing.)
And as I see through the real you,
I'm falling straight into
A thousand broken mirrors; I can't hide.
And outside, the bright lights
Won't hide the pain inside,
And I'm broke in a thousand mirrors.
Now it's time,
Now it's time,
Now it's ti-i-i-ime.
