This mirror is clearly deceiving
Says the man who looks back on me, cleaving
Onto yesterday's frightened boy, lost and alone
Who's now turned away and is leaving
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
This mirror insists on revealing
All the lines on my face not worth healing
Every wrinkle of fate, every scar's slim escape
All along it was time it was stealing
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
Oh, this mirror is so unforgiving
And I, like a fool, keep believing
That tomorrow will come and prove all of it wrong
As Dali's clocks melt on the ceiling
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
As time slips through me
Through me!
Through me!
Through me
