"Trick Mirror" lyrics

"Trick Mirror"

I see you like I always have
But it's a trick mirror, love can look like an avalanche
So I start to run till I lose sight
It's a trick mirror and I got glass in my eyes

Sometimes it's quicker to walk away
When you see signs of a darker day
But the more that you leave, oh, the less they will wait
And no one can love you if you don't stay

I love you like I always have, but my body's cold
Whenever the weather gets bad
I start to run and I don't look back
But you're my shelter and I'm left alone in the black

Sometimes it's quicker to walk away
When you see signs of a darker day
But the more that you leave, oh, the less they will wait
And no one can love you if you don't stay

Without my expectations, and my defence formations
I am naked to the bone
Without my exit strategies, my manual on how to be alone
I'll be somebody's someone, I'll be somebody's someone

Sometimes it's quicker to walk away
When you see signs of a darker day
But the more that you leave, oh, the less they will wait
And no one can love you if you don't stay

I'll never be somebody's someone
I'll never be somebody's someone
