Lying to the mirror

Can we believe all that we read all that we tell you?
What you perceive to be the truth and what is real
Leaving you scraping at the bottom of the barrel
Nothing is broken or forgotten, that´s the deal
And all your monsters in the night they come to life
So you embrace them in the hope that you´ll survive
Intoxicated by the fear and the flames
There´s paranoia in your veins
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to the mirror
It is the beauty of our flaws that will define us
So don´t hold on to all the things you never had
Just remember we´re the good the bad the lovely
It is the sanity of life that makes us mad
So when the pain of your mistakes keeps you awake
And, all your skeletons rattle in the chains
Intoxicated by the fear and the flames
There´s paranoia in your veins
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to the mirror
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...
Who you are is what you are and,
What you are is beautiful
(Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...)
Who you are is what you are and,
What you are is beautiful
(Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...)
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to...
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to the mirror...
What you perceive to be the truth and what is real
Leaving you scraping at the bottom of the barrel
Nothing is broken or forgotten, that´s the deal
And all your monsters in the night they come to life
So you embrace them in the hope that you´ll survive
Intoxicated by the fear and the flames
There´s paranoia in your veins
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to the mirror
It is the beauty of our flaws that will define us
So don´t hold on to all the things you never had
Just remember we´re the good the bad the lovely
It is the sanity of life that makes us mad
So when the pain of your mistakes keeps you awake
And, all your skeletons rattle in the chains
Intoxicated by the fear and the flames
There´s paranoia in your veins
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to the mirror
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...
Who you are is what you are and,
What you are is beautiful
(Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...)
Who you are is what you are and,
What you are is beautiful
(Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...Ahh, Ahh, Ahh...)
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to...
We´re all, lying to the mirror,
Lying to ourselves
Hiding in the glitter,
Lying to the mirror...
