[Verse 1]
First place on a classroom wall

Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight
[Verse 2]
First day in a victim's chair
Every surface replaced can help to keep you

Something material, this isn't personal
[Chorus]
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight
[Bridge]
We're all dancing to the same sad song
And we're not sleeping, but it won't take long
Illicit conviction, confessions incomplete
Correction, submissive restriction
Instructions will repeat, direction
[Outro]
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss, to wish us all goodnight
