Liar mirror, looking at me
I can’t handle the things that your see
The world has moved on now, leaving me behind
But I’m so tired now, I just don’t mind
The world is so indifferent it’s a crying shame
No matter what you do they don’t remember your name
All of these children, singing their song
Warn me that it don’t last long
I don’t fit the skin I’m in
Doesn’t seem like the dreamer I’ve been
The world is so indifferent it’s a cryin’ shame
No matter what you do, well no-one knows your name
Climbing up that hill
It all seems great
But the view from up here
Says you left it much too late
You won’t want me, I’m too far gone
The marks of living much too long
There’s a stranger frowning in the glass
A Substitute to pay for my past
The world is so indifferent it’s a crying’ shame
No matter what you do they don’t remember your name
Life and living, it’s great you see
Well I want it back now,Give it back to me
Just Give it back to me…
