lyrics

You never hold your head up. Does it bother you to smile over this face with you now? I'll break this bottle, drink it down. And I don't want to think tonight that my mistakes are around. And you wake with the mirror in your lap, and hate what you see there looking back. And you hope that your eyes deceive you now, and you don't let them see you this knocked down. I want to take a part of me and pump it in to someones heart, let it flow from end to end. I see that old has been renewed, and through the crawl you can't hold on, but you see me crackin......crackin up. And you wake with the mirror in your lap, and you take as you know you're looking back. And you hope that your eyes deceive you now, and you don't let them see you this knocked down. Do you lie when you say you're fine? Do you lie? Do you lie to me all the time? Do you lie just to hide your eyes? All the time? You never hold your head up, does it bother you to smile over this face with you now? And you wake to the mirror in your................... And you hate what you see there looking back, and you hope that your eyes deceive you now. And you don't let them see you this knocked down.
