1. LOOKING GLASS

Verse 1:

Stay awake, don’t fall asleep

We both need our distance
We both need
A little persistence
To succeed

Can we stand on our own feet, separately?
Can we make it through this fire?

When the dust settles for us
I believe

We will make our way through this
Young and free

Without these rose tinted glasses
I can see

The shadows forming, around me

Chorus:

How can I pretend that I’m ok with this
You take me places that I never knew exist
Falling fast, I gotta find my way around
Step by step I keep my feet on solid ground

I’m holding on for better days
When I can find the words to say to you
You’ve fallen through the looking glass
I can hardly recognise you

Verse 2:

I can hardly recognise you

If I don’t ask the question
How can we

Learn from these lessons
Gain clarity

With our eyes prized wide open, hearts on our sleeves
Can we make it through this? Honestly

Breakdown:

*Muted colours
*Cover my eyes
*This moment in time
*The roses are black
*And the violets are too

I gotta the stay
I gotta compromise
I gotta figure out a way I can make it right

You gotta leave
You gotta have a spine
Don’t wanna live your life in vain
You’re gonna lose your mind

I gotta the stay
I gotta improvise
I gotta figure out a way I can fix our lives

You gotta run
You gotta get out fast
Don’t look back through the looking glass
