I'm standing at a mirror

I don't know who I'm looking at


this part I play that I didn't write

have I gone too far to come back



I wish you could see the real me

more than just this song and dance

but that's all you saw to begin with

so that's what I gave you at last



I'm empty as a desert well

but I built the walls of this mirrored cell

it was a spiraled game of show and tell

and you beat me every time

(every time)



I feel as easy to see through

as a candidate for political office in DC

yet my loneliness is carefully hidden

though I'm dying to let it be seen yeah



I'm empty as a desert well

but I built the walls of this mirrored cell

it was a spiraled game of show and tell

and you beat me every time



I'm empty as a desert well

but I built the walls of this mirrored cell

it was a spiraled game of show and tell

and you beat me every time

and you beat me oh every time



tear me down

see me naked

this tired facade

is wearin thin yeah

it's wearin thin

yeah



I'm empty as a desert well

but I built the walls of this mirrored cell

it was a spiraled game of show and tell

and you beat me every time

I'm empty (as a desert well) x 4
