[Verse 1]
Understand the flow when you’re with me
Realize it’s nothing but free speech
Baby you and me we can have it all
Treat me like I’m some kind of princess
Tell me words you would never confess
I will coo until I know I’m not first
As we float pretend it is ok
Lie to me and tell me it’s my way
Put your hands upon me and shake my mind
Know that there is nothing that I’d like
Better than to spend just the whole night
Falsifying life in a motel room
[Chorus]
Dreaming of a quiet mirror
Please don't ever, say it’s not that way
Dreaming I won't see you clearer
Please don't ever, say it’s not that way
[Verse 2]
Relative is all that we know to
Make our minds into thoughts we see through
Live like me and baby you'll have it all
I would lie if I said I did know
Find true love in my silly symbols
Stay in bed you know it’s the only way
[Chorus]
Dreaming of a quiet mirror
Please don't ever, say it’s not that way
Dreaming I won't see you clearer
Please don't ever, say it’s not that way
[Bridge]
So if you see me first, please, stay with me in this sweet scene
I’m not leaving for you, I’ll lie down before you
And when you’re not enchanted, just walk away unnoticed
Don’t tell me you’re sorry. Make me leave my party
You know it’s easy in here, to control pain that I wear
Relative is all that we know to
Make our minds into thoughts we see through
Live like me and baby you’ll have it all
[Chorus]
Dreaming of a quiet mirror
Please don't ever, say it’s not that way
Dreaming I won't see you clearer
Please don't ever, say it’s not that way
