I woke up first this morning   I?ve never seen the dawn   But I know what the world   Looked like before      How would I know what you said?   You?re always first to go to bed   You?re intent on sleeping it off      Let me sleep next to the mirror   I know you don?t like mirrors   When they reflect on you      For every word that you write   They won?t mean much as barricades   (They hold me down)   With every word that you write   They don?t mean much as barricades   (They hold me down)      For every word that you write   It won?t mean much as barricades   (They hold me down)   For every word that you write   They won?t mean much when they barricade, yeah eh      I?m sure that you?ll be fine   Ten more years of this   It will nearly be time   I?m sure that you?ll be fine   It can?t take ten more years      You woke up first this morning   You told me that   You had a bad dream   Like one never before      What was in it?   My reflection showed   That I?m far too critical      Let me sleep next to the mirror   Don?t tell me that you don?t like mirrors   Don?t tell me that you don?t like   Looking right through your own reflection      For every word that I write   They won?t mean much as barricades   (They hold me down)   For every word that you write   They don?t mean much as barricades   (They hold me down)      For every word that you write   It don?t mean much as barricades   (They hold me down)   With every word that you write   It's so much for a barricade      I?m sure that you?ll be fine   Ten more years of this   It will nearly be time   I?m sure that you?ll be fine   But it can?t take ten more years
