Lyrics:
Deep in the mirror maze
A sign that says “applause” goes on
A clown asks how I’m feeling now
He tells me that I’ve won
 
I’m looking at the frozen smile
That’s drawn across his face
I’m not sure how I got this far
This has never been my place
 
I tend to confuse myself 
With the person in the glass
Who’s reflecting who right now
And who of us will last
 
Steel eyes looking closer
Searching for the tear
I hold myself until you go
I will never let you near
 
I tend to confuse myself 
With the person in the glass
Who’s reflecting who right now
And who of us will last
 


Mirror Maze

Chain me to your bed
Change me
Treat me bad
Do whatever you please
Do whatever you please

Tell me I’m the one
Toss me when you’re done
Do whatever you please
Do whatever you please

‘Cuz I know it’s not gonna matter
What I say
You’re gonna do whatever you want anyway


Please

Five hundred and thirteen needles within
Four hundred eyes at the window peeking in
Twenty-eight hands trying to grab a part
Two absent hands that you want
 
And one life that is passing by
One life that is passing you by

Six or eight stretch marks on your leg
A hundred twenty-two hot wax treatments
Twenty-two beginnings of diets
Two hidden scars on your skin

And one life that is passing by
One life that is passing you by

Three hundred sixty five nights filled with light
Three hundred sixty five dark, dark mornings
Eighty-two landmines on the way
Zero signs of warning


Inventory

One two three four fire
My arms are so tired
One two three four fire
My eyes are so tired

And even though I wear this uniform
I was not born to fight
I don’t believe in this gun
I’m forced to hold so tight

One two three four fire
My eyes are so tired
One two three four fire
My arms are so tired

And I too wanna be loved with much passion
Wanna teach my children of hope and compassion

One two three four fire
My heart is so tired
One two three four fire
My heart is so tired
One two three four fire
One two three four fire

When you see me
Try to remember
That every fist was once an open hand
And fingers


Army Song

Dear, I know you were brought up to be practical 
To find solutions to your problems 
Not to wallow in the pain
I know it’s hard 
Coming home to someone with such a long face 
You don’t need to put yourself In my place

‘Cuz sometimes 
I don’t wanna get better 
Sometimes I just need to be sad 
Sometimes your constructive ideas 
Are the last things I wanna hear
So just shut up and hug me

I know there are a million possible ways 
To get out of the mess that I’m in 
I promise I will Figure them out on my own
When I get out of this state I am in

But right now 
I don’t wanna get better 
Right now I just need to be sad 
Right now your constructive ideas 
Are the last things I wanna hear
So just shut up and hug me


Shut Up & Hug Me

So we killed all of the dragons
And we sailed the seven seas
We are finally together
Lord knows we were hard to please
Waking up the morning after
The point where all the movies end
You’re learning how I like my coffee
I’m getting to know your friends

Nobody tells you how great this can be
Cooking dinner together
Watching a movie

Well zoom out the camera 
Queue the corny violins
The moment all those movies end
That’s where life begins 

Nobody tells you how great this can be
Cooking dinner together
Watching a movie


Happily Ever After

I wish you well 
Just not all the best
I don’t wish you love
But I wish you all the rest

I wish you health
In your body and your mind
I wish you wealth
That your bosses will be kind
I wish you friends
That will always be so true
And when you need them I wish they’d
All be there for you

I wish you well 
Just not all the best
I don’t wish you love
But I wish you all the rest

I wish your mind to never stop growing
I wish your eyes to never stop showing
What’s in your heart
And I wish your heart
That it would be full
With the beauty of the stars above 
But no 
Not filled with love

I wish you well 
Just not all the best
I don’t wish you love
But I wish you all the rest


A Birthday Greeting

Here are again oh what surprise 
I'm still into you and your still into me 
but I`ll play it cool not get over excited 
cause i know that it scares you 

Here we are again oh what a surprise 
I'm still bad for you and you’re still bad for me 
But we make believe we've grown up and we've gotten smarter 

so why can't I let go 
so why can't I say goodbye oh darling 
so give it to me straight girl 
stop running from the point 
just tell me what it is that your so scared to say 

well I've said goodbye many times 
is it so wrong to try to end it nicely 
I was just trying to keep you from hurting 
and maybe keep you as my plan B

well I wish you'd said this sooner 
cause its been five years since you said to me 
that we might meet up in the future 
you know that’s the worst thing you can say to anyone 

well I've said good bye many times 
(I didn't hear you)
is it so wrong to try to end it nicely 
(you call this nice?)
Well I was just trying to keep you from hurting 
(it didn't work)
I was just trying 

To make it easy on yourself 
To make it easy on yourself 

Here it is the time has come 
the time has come for me to say goodbye 
its the hardest thing that I have ever done 
No more drunken texts in the middle of the night saying I still love you
but I’ll say goodbye 
I’ll just say goodbye
Say goodbye


Here we are Again (Feat. Mark Kelly)

Peter sits with me tonight
On a bench out by the lake
He brought imaginary tea
I brought imaginary cake

We haven’t seen each other 
Since we both were very small
And since then everything has change
And nothing changed at all 

You know I didn't mean to grow up
I tell him, looking at the ground
I hope you know all this was not my choice

And that I've always left my window open
But far too many times
What I heard was not your voice.

Behind the eyes of sleeping children,
Our Neverland lives on.
But that is all for me, my dear
For me
That world is gone


Wendy's Song

אשיר לך שיר עתיק, נושן 
אשיר לך זמר על שושן. 
היה היו לפני שנים 
שני שושנים, שני שושנים. 
היה זה כבר רחוק היום, 
אחד לבן, שני אדום. 

בני גן אחד, כשני אחים, 
צמחו עלה, צמחו חוחים. 
עת בא הבוקר צחור גוון 
פקח עיניים הלבן, 
וערב בא ורד היום 
עצם עיניים האדום. 

ובלילות ובלילות 
נשבו רוחות בם קלילות. 
כה לבלבו עד באה יד, 
יד שקטפה שושן אחד, 
ואין יודע עד היום - 
את הלבן או האדום. 

ורק יודעים כי הנותר 
ליבו נשבר, ליבו נשבר... 
היה היו לפני שנים 
שני שושנים, שני שושנים. 
היה זה כבר רחוק היום, 
אחד לבן, שני אדום.

Two Roses

It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can hug and say good night
It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can end this stupid fight

It seems that if I say that I am sorry
It would mean that I’ve lost
So I will close my eyes and go on fighting
No matter what the cost

It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can end this stupid fight
It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can hug and say good night

It doesn’t even matter what the reason
Was that started this fight
And even though I’ll probably be miserable
I will know that I was right 

It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can hug and say good night
It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can end this stupid fight

You take the chair
So I take the table
I take the switch
So you take the cable
You take the Dylan
I take the Joni
But you never liked her anyway
You’re such a big fat phony 

It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can hug and say good night
It’s gonna get a whole lot worse
Before it gets better
Before we can end this stupid fight

And even though I’ll probably be miserable
I will know that I was right.


It's Gonna Get a Whole Lot Worse

This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang, but with a whimper
This is the way the world ends
With an “it’s not so good”
“I’m not so sure”
With an “I didn’t mean to”
With an “I have to go
I’ll talk to you later”
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang, but with a whimper
With an “I guess I’ll see you around”
This is the way the world ends
