Mirror on the wall tell another lie
Lie about my age the colour of my eyes
Mirror on the wall show me what it's like
Staring at a face that greets you with a smile
Mirror on the wall tell me how it feels
Being satisfied feeling good inside
Mirror on the wall show me what it's like
Loving someone so it makes you wanna cry
Tell another story tell me not to worry
Let me find a reason
Tell me that i'm good just the way i am
Tell another story with happy ending
Tell me not to worry
Keep on pretending
Tell me there's a sky outside the window
Tell me there is light behind the door
Have a little mercy
Don't let me break up
Say that it's all over before i wake up
Let me fall asleep
I must have been dreaming after all
Have a little mercy
Mirror on the wall tell another lie
Lie about my age the colour of my eyes
Mirror on the wall show me what it's like
Staring at a face that greets you with a smile
Have a little mercy
Don't let me break up
Say that it's all over before i wake up
Let me fall asleep
I must have been dreaming after all
Have a little mercy
