Mirage Lyrics

You've got a feeling like scissors

'Cause you're all cut up with me

And here's a chance for redemption

But you take another swing at me



Got you feeling so foolish now

I think it's time you let go

And if you thought I gave in easily

Well then I guess you thought wrong



No, I didn't hurt you,

'Cause you only hurt yourself

And no, I didn't break you

You just fell from your top shelf and



You fell into my hands

But I let you slip right through

You fell into my heart

And out came the blues.



I'm just a little bit older,

A little bit wiser, a little more mature,

I'm just a little bit bolder,

I know it's hard to believe, but this time I'm sure



Caught out in the rain drinking wine

From the bottom of a paper cup

You know I've been trying hard to get over you

But the idea isn't the part that's tough.



And if ever there was a time I wished

That I could be slung over my own shoulder

i'd cry out to you but you wouldn't listen

you'd just keep sucking away at my pride.



No, I didn't hurt you,

'Cause you only hurt yourself

And no, I didn't break you

You just fell from your top shelf and



Oh you fell into my hands

But I let you slip right on through

You fell into my heart and

You left me with the blues



And I'm feeling a little bit younger,

A little bit colder, a little bit childish,

And I'm just a little bit more insecure

Oh I know it's not hard to believe but don't think I'm sure



So where do we go

From this city in the sand

I've got a pocket full of water

And you've got a diamond on your hand



But I'll keep believing

Even as my hope grows slowly old

And I'll be the last one to know

When your heart just can't hold on to



The waves

They're calling me

Back to the sea and

I'm sliding

So slowly

Into the deep 'cause



This body

Can't take me

Back to where I know I should

Be happy

Be honest

Be stupid and we'll let it all go from there



Be ready

Be bold now

There's so much I've got to show you and

I'm ready

You're folding

But I've got the upper hand on you



Oh no, I didn't hurt you,

'Cause you only hurt yourself

And no, I didn't break you

You just fell from your top shelf and



You've fallen back into my hands

And you're just more bad news

Keep steady, keep holding,

You've just come to bring me the blues.



And I'm waiting,

I'm still waiting

But it's no good

...It's just no good.
