Missy Higgins - Drop the Mirror lyrics

"Turn"

he said

"Remove that veil, your fading in the head."

And take

off your slip

and slip into my heaviness of skin,

And I'll be your disguise,

yeah I'll be your disguise

Believe

now in what you see,

'cos seeing me is all you'll ever be,

and shhh baby don't you think,

I'll close your eyes so you need not to blink.

And I'll numb your demise,

yeah I'll numb your demise

'Cos baby who will come more than a mile

to put a rose on withered cheeks that hide no smile?

And if the paint don't satisfy,

you know you can hide in me until you get it right.

So drop the mirror, look at me...

...with polished eyes.

An unnecessary feature'cos I am fine

but this

talent that you'll learn

will soon be your deflection of the hurt

and I'll numb your demise,

yeah I'll numb your demise

'Cos who would come more than a mile

to put a rose on withered cheeks that hide no smile?

And if the paint don't satisfy

you know you can hide in me until you get it right.

So drop the mirror, look at me...

'Cos baby who will come more than a mile

to put a rose on withered cheeks that hide no smile?

And if the paint don't satisfy

you know you can hide in me until you get it right"
