Borderline

Mirror, mirror on the wall

You know I thought I knew it all

But now I see I never stopped to listen

I've been measuring the October days

Forgetting what the radio plays

And wondering if there's something I am missing

Feels like so long since I been lyin'

Feels like so long since I been cryin' to myself

Feels like so long since I been tryin'

To lay my troubles on somebody else

But it's so easy

To run away into that other world of mine

And it's so easy

To take a little step across the borderline

So come on in, we're starting over

Put down your money, and be like us

So come on in, and show your friends

Put down your money, and be like us

Now a prophet without honor speaks

And whiles away the lonely weeks

And knows that all his fellow men are laughing

So you want to be a movie star

Borderline Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com

And drive a big red fancy car

And weave between the fallen statues crashing

Feels like so long since I been healin'

Feels like so long since I been feelin' alright

Feels like so long since I been stealin'

Away from you and out into the night

But it's so easy

(etc.)

Well I can't expect for you to wait

The cavalry has come to late

And I am after all a human being

I'm gonna wait here for the sun to rise

Take a dagger and cut out both my eyes

Cause I can't fight against the things I'm seeing

And maybe someday you will see me

And maybe someday you will need me but I don't know when

And maybe someday you will free me

And pull me 'cross the borderline again

But it's so easy

(etc.)
