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
CHORUS:
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-e-yeah
CHORUS(2x)
BRIDGE:
tear me down
see me naked
this tired facade
is wearin thin yeah
it's wearin thin
yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah
wwhhoo-hhhooo hhhoooo-yyeeaahh
wwhhoo-hhhooo hhhoooo-yyeeaahhh
wwhhoo-hhhhhhhhoooooooo
CHORUS
I'm empty (as a desert well)
I'm empty (as a desert well)
I'm empttyyy (as a desert well)
I'm empty (as a desert well)
