Drop The Mirror Lyrics

by Missy Higgins

"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

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e96856-missy_higgins~drop_the_mirror_lyrics.html ]
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"
