lyrics

See you behind every mirror,
Behind a pretty face
I'm just a play thing in your hands
A rag doll thrown to the wall,
Shapeless on the floor
Waiting for someone to pick me up.

I breathe in, hold it in
Exhale and start again.
Breathe it in, hold it in
I'll fight it back till the morning light

What's it take to kill
The pain you've never been without?
When you know what you need
and just can't get it,
Stuck in place forever and a day

Simple pleasures come
muddled in static; the rind and the syrup,
more bitter than sweet
heavy on our tongues
Forever and a day

And in her forest of discord,
I'm just the wailing ghost,
Of a hiker lost long ago
Frozen in my despair
While I sift through the brush,
I seek a clearing that's long overgrown
