lyrics

I can only imagine the cold drive home
A pleading voice at the door ignored no more
indirectly unmask this china doll war.
Because with these words I guess there comes a little explantion
which you obviously think you deserve more than me
I can't avoid this speech as its bounces off the silence in between
what makes up honesty and the mystery you'll alway be, you'll always be.

Let's skip the romance, skip the fun jump straight to the cold hard facts.
I peer out my shutters. Feel the frantic peaceful panic attack.
Is it the season that makes you act this way?
You always say another Holiday is just like any other Goddamn day
They ring the bells and hang the holly and you sink as the music plays

I don't hold anything against you
I just can't hold you against me.

It's a sacrifice I'm not willing to make.
My happiness for your sake.

Does life feel like a tragedy
I know that you just can't see
when your so close to your mirror
Take a step back, things would look clearer
What a beautiful big picture that is you.
I think you'd find your beauty in places other than where
you run your fingers through the different colors of your hair
You could stare yourself straight in the face
and all the panic would be replaced.

She has such a beautiful mirror.
