I woke up first this morning
IÔÇÖve never seen the dawn
But I know what the world looked like before
How would I know what you said?
YouÔÇÖre always first to go to bed
YouÔÇÖre intent on sleeping it off
Let me sleep, next to the mirror
I know you donÔÇÖt like mirrors
When they reflect on you
For every word that you write
They wonÔÇÖt mean much as barricades (They hold me down)
IÔÇÖm sure that youÔÇÖll be fine
Ten more years of this
It will nearly be time
IÔÇÖm sure that youÔÇÖll be fine
It canÔÇÖt take ten more years
You woke up first this morning
You told me that you had a bad dream
Like one never before
What was in it?
My reflection showed that IÔÇÖm far too critical
Let me sleep next to the mirror
DonÔÇÖt tell me that you donÔÇÖt like mirrors
DonÔÇÖt tell me that you donÔÇÖt like
Looking right through your own reflection
For every word that I write
They wonÔÇÖt mean much as barricades (They hold me down)
IÔÇÖm sure that youÔÇÖll be fine
Ten more years of this
It will nearly be time
IÔÇÖm sure that youÔÇÖll be fine
But it canÔÇÖt take ten more years
