My mirror speaks
by Death Cab For Cutie

With every sun that sets I am feeling more
Like a stranger on a foreign shore
With an eroding beach disappearing from underneath
And when my mirror speaks it never minces words
Because these eyes don´t shine half as bright
As they used to do and they haven´t for quite a while
Because I´m a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside my head
With nothing on either end
I always fall in love with an open door
With a horizon on an endless sea
As I look around the ones who were standing right in front of me
And then my mirror speaks with irreverence
Like a soldier I can´t command
It sees a child in the body of a full-grown man
And he´s a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside his head
With nothing on either end
There´s nothing on either end
A new position for a different view
And nothing changes but the slightest hues
And I am standing face to face
With a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside his head
With nothing on either end
I´m a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside my head
With nothing on either end
[2X]
There´s nothing on the ends
No there´s nothing on the ends
Like a stranger on a foreign shore
With an eroding beach disappearing from underneath
And when my mirror speaks it never minces words
Because these eyes don´t shine half as bright
As they used to do and they haven´t for quite a while
Because I´m a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside my head
With nothing on either end
I always fall in love with an open door
With a horizon on an endless sea
As I look around the ones who were standing right in front of me
And then my mirror speaks with irreverence
Like a soldier I can´t command
It sees a child in the body of a full-grown man
And he´s a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside his head
With nothing on either end
There´s nothing on either end
A new position for a different view
And nothing changes but the slightest hues
And I am standing face to face
With a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside his head
With nothing on either end
I´m a man who hides from all that binds
And a mess of fading lines
And there´s a tangled thread inside my head
With nothing on either end
[2X]
There´s nothing on the ends
No there´s nothing on the ends
