Let me in, I’m back
dragging all the chances i could miss
every single fault
every little thing that didn’t work
please keep ’em all next to me,
nearby the mirror
Let me in … I’m back
just a little more deluded than before
sorry if I’m wet,
I’ve been watering wings with loads of tears
and all the promises
we made to the mirror
Don’t look back again
it’s in the past, it couldn’t last
Never hide that frown
it wouldn’t be happiness
just what they do
when they lie to the mirror
Don’t look back again
it’s in the past, it never lasts
Never hide that frown
now that fairness hardly shows up …
but it hides in the mirror
it hides in the mirror

Said Before

make up, dress up, now show it to me
don't let them know there's not much more than this
no, it's not that I don't have more to say today
maybe it is just that you fuck up the meaning
of what I said before
now protest … I know you don't care
pretend, they don't have to know mummy's still paying for this
for you to disgrace a word you need to cut
to hide the meaning
No it's not that i don't have more to say, it is just ...
that in the end you're nothing more than the enemy
and the shame … of what i said before
cause there's a truth you'll never face,
a price you' will never understand
there is a corner for your poor, shameful, endless decadence
there is a frown for every day you spent pretending to forget
that's a story that you steal, you did never fight for it
you don't belong to what we made to keep safe that innocence
no it's not that I don't have much to say today
I tell you it is just I will manage to fix
what I used to say and I will keep on saying
once more … what i said before
