I awake to see the face that I've known for too long
Cover mirror to mirror I black out the reflections
Repulsing at the face that haunts me

Lay me down in the grass where no one can see
For no one due the pain of looking at me
I can feel the earths rotation
But my mind is on it's own orbit

I aspire to be something from a mythology
Maybe if I came out of a page
They wouldn't care how I behave

I avoid every river and lake I see
For if narcissus only saw beauty in thee
I commend the adoration
For who could blame death of a passion?

Lay me down in the grass where no one can see
For no one due the pain of looking at me
I can feel the earths rotation
But my mind is on it's own orbit

It's not like I didn't cry out for help
No answers I reached out so much I couldn't count
All through the lies I saw your eyes and I would never get out
You saw the pain and walked away
Knowing I'd follow

It's not like I didn't cry out for help
(If I knew)
No answers I reached out so much I couldn't count
(I would have carried you)
All through the lies I saw your eyes and I would never get out
(All through the lies)
You saw the pain and walked away knowing I'd follow
(It was to shield you)

I didn't want to read your mind
Just love you until the end of time
But grey skies always carried us
To the worst place
