"Salesman" lyrics

"Salesman"

You were looking for a partner
Shelter from the cold
He led you to his prism
A prison made of gold
Now you have a baby
She's looking up at you
And you will try to control what she sees
But you can never hide the truth

Now you're praying on your knees
Mirror mirror do you like it?
Do you like what you see?

Handsome salesman
Sold you heaven
Now you wait for it to fall
Until then you will surrender it all

He's kissing you goodnight
He's dressed for someone else
He says to you honey don't you wait up
And you wake up by yourself

Now you're praying, back on your knees
Mirror mirror give me the strength
The strength to believe

Handsome salesman
Sold you heaven
Now you wait for it to fall
Until then you will surrender it all

Do what I say
Not what I do
What have I done

Do what I say
Not what I do
What have I done

Do what I say
Not what I do

Handsome salesman
Sold you heaven
Now you wait for it to fall
Until then you will surrender it all
You will surrender it all
You will surrender it all
You will surrender
You will surrender
You will surrender...
