Who's eyes in the mirror dark
Don't recognize any spark
Goodbye Fly away
Far from yesterday

Shadow on the wing
don't mean anything
Preening all the doubt
about the new song I sing

Goodbye who I knew
It isn't me: this other you
Let go the rainbow glass
at last you see
you are not me

Collision in my head
Teardrops on someone else's bed
Thank you for leaving quietly
I forgot what you said

Paper dance on fire wind
Let tomorrow now begin
A force that pulls this breath away
The Mirror holds a brand new grin
