Mirror Mirror Songtext
"You know, don′t you feel that it's great"
"For you to have your father′s perspective on"
"On who you are, and what you're doing?" - Phil Towle
"It's easier to talk about"
"When he′s not in my presence?" - Lars Ulrich
"Well what you, what would you say in private? Say it"
"Say it" - Phil Towle
Spent all the morning with tears in my glasses
Trying to ignore all your emails
My vision′s deforming, I'm staring through lashes
Trying to distort all the details
You said I sadden you terribly, now I′m in therapy
You can't believe how I turned out
I wish you could teach me to build from the ashes
Of the leash that I burned down
When I look in the mirror, mirror
I hate what′s staring back at me
And it's all getting clearer, clearer
There′s so much of you I see
I know in your mind you're still twenty five
And dread every day as grey overtakes
The face in the mirror, mirror
Who gave up on the dream
No I'm not who you want me to be
No I′m not who you want me to be
And it got me thinking that if I′m just like you
Maybe I'll find how make this right
And maybe your instinct and way you abuse it
Are my blueprint to a better life
Maybe all your mistakes are from a cage you escaped
And maybe all of your hate′s misunderstood
You'll stay my idol, but I′ll break the cycle
The way that I know you wish you could
When I look in the mirror, mirror
I hate what's staring back at me
And it′s all getting clearer, clearer
There's so much of you I see
I know in your mind you're still twenty five
And dread every day as grey overtakes
The face in the mirror, mirror
Who gave it up for me
No I′m not who you want me to be
Cause I′m all that you taught me to be
No I'm not who you want me to be (Where do we go from here?)
Cause I′m all that you taught me to be (Where do we go from here?)
No I'm not who you want me to be (Where do we go from here?)
(How long can this keep going on?) (Until the end)
Man I′m all that you taught me to be (Where do we go from here?)
(Man I've had it for the last time) (I need my old friend)
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
How long can this keep going on?
Man I′ve had it for the last time
Don't you still believe in me?
Won't you quit your pleading for me to change?
I′ve got enough weight on my back
I′ve got enough hate for my past
Until the end
Until the end
I need my old friend back
Old friend back
No I'm not who you want me to be
Cause I′m all that you taught me to be
No I'm not who you want me to be
Man I′m all that you taught me to be
(No I'm not who you want me to be) When I look in the mirror, mirror
(Cause I′m all that you taught me to be) Oh it's all getting clearer, clearer
(No I'm not who you want me to be) When I look in the mirror, look in the mirror
(Man I′m all that you taught me to be)
No I′m not who you want me to be
Cause I'm all that you taught me to be
No I′m not who you want me to be
Man I'm all that you taught me to be

No I′m not who you want me to be
Man I'm all that you taught me to be
