Animal In The Mirror Lyrics

You keep forgetting the lines, the lines that show Where you were bound long ago Animal in the mirror
Live out another mise en scène Somebody else's summer again Animal in the mirror
And stop this pretending, there's plenty of time All your happy endings, will they never find Animal in the mirror?
Excited night, flickering trade A bag of nerves on a balustrade Animal in the mirror
Slow dissolve in tears, tears that chart How we're the same, the same worlds apart Animal in the mirror
Stop this pretending, there's plenty of time All your happy endings, will they never find Animal in the mirror?
"Oh Lord", I spoke up this morning I had nothing to say Above the hum of another Raw and exquisite day
Lord, I broke up this morning I rose in pieces and dreams I was running late and scared in Paris In springtime and fog juice streams
Forget your lines, the lines that show Where you were bound long ago Animal in the mirror
Slow dissolve in tears that chart How we're the same, the same worlds apart Animal in the mirror
After a fashion, after a fall After reality, after all Animal in the mirror
Stop this pretending, there's plenty of time All your happy endings, will they never find Animal in the mirror?
