Let Me Sleep (Next To The Mirror)
I woke up first this morning
Iâ"š¬â"ž¢ve never seen the dawn
But I know what the world looked like before
How would I know what you said?
Youâ"š¬â"ž¢re always first to go to bed
Youâ"š¬â"ž¢re intent on sleeping it off
Let me sleep, next to the mirror
I know you donâ"š¬â"ž¢t like mirrors
When they reflect on you
For every word that you write
They wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t mean much as barricades (they hold me down)
Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m sure that youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be fine
Ten more years of this
It will nearly be time
Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m sure that youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be fine
It canâ"š¬â"ž¢t 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 Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m far too critical
Let me sleep next to the mirror
Donâ"š¬â"ž¢t tell me that you donâ"š¬â"ž¢t like mirrors
Donâ"š¬â"ž¢t tell me that you donâ"š¬â"ž¢t like
Looking right through your own reflection
For every word that I write
They wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t mean much as barricades (they hold me down)
Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m sure that youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be fine
Ten more years of this
It will nearly be time
Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m sure that youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be fine
But it canâ"š¬â"ž¢t take ten more years
