Mirror Song

[Verse 1]
Where to begin?
Let's see, describe to me your injury in a drunken late-night text
You've been hurt before and now want more
You can count on me to join you under the wreckage

[Refrain]
For it seems we're still the passengers, still Iggy's loyal customers
In the city's still ripped backsides
We will do what we need to keep this fantasy alive

[Verse 2]
Dressing bathroom stalls with alcohol
You ask me to be to you more than a mother
I will meet you in the arrivals hall
I can tell you by the way you are still wearing your crutches

[Refrain]
You made a scene there at the festival, a European spectacle
It was funny to play the clown
Now you wonder why you cannot keep your thoughts to yourself
Not make a sound

[Chorus]
Oh, and despite our best efforts, here comes another new year
Walking in circles, you say, "I swear I've been here before"

[Verse 3]
I miss home
I miss that lazy comedy of pulling you up off the lawn
As it turns out, you are not so far away
So says the ring on my phone

[Refrain]
And it seems I'm still the passenger, still Iggy's loyal customer
With the panic of dumb, dumb boys
For a while there, I had nearly tricked myself into believing I had some kind of choice

[Bridge]
And I can tell you've been thinking you can outrun all the nightmares
It took a while to find out some people care and some don't

[Chorus]
Yes, and despite our best efforts, here comes another new year
Walking in circles, I wonder if we've been here all along

[Outro]
Where to begin?
Let's see, describe to me your injury
Where should I send my regards?
Where should they go?
