Mirrors

(Sally Rivers & Alan Whittaker)

Mirrors

Smoke in the mirror, clouding your eyes
Masking your face from the innocent lies
Brush back your hair, let the colour shine through
Drawing the paling complexion in you
I don’t understand, what turned your hand
Holding you under, head in the sand….But I try

You said that you love me, I’m really not sure
And acting the fool doesn’t wash any more
Stripped of emotion, there’s nobody home
Lately it seems you don’t pick up the phone
And talk to your friends, you’re in control
Sharing your interest, baring your soul

You can say that you’re sorry
You can beg me to stay
Well you don’t have to worry
Cause you know I’m OK….but I cry

Smoke in the mirror, fading away
It’s getting much harder to find things to say
Turn on the T.V., shut out the day
Losing your value and riding the wave
I suddenly find, I’m out of my mind
Moving in darkness, leading you blind….leading you blind

You can say that you’re sorry
You can beg me to stay
Well you don’t have to worry
Cause you know I’m OK….but I cry
