[Verse 1]
Take a seat, and tell me why you think you're sinking underneath
You think I don't know you're lying through your teeth
This isn't a game that we should repeat, repeat
I wonder where you got the idea that you're hard to share
I won't let you be forever in repair
Honesty is all we need to clear the air, clear the air
[Chorus]
Looking in the mirror at a black eye
A composition with a white lie
It won't show you who's inside
[Verse 2]
You decide if this is a question we can redefine
I wanna be with you when you realign
See you on the cover of the other side, other side
Start again, maybe there's another way to reach the end
Anything can happen but it all depends
On whether you believe yourself or just pretend, just pretend
[Chorus]
Looking in the mirror at a black eye
A composition with a white lie
It won't show you who's inside
[Bridge]
Bad nights, lost tracks
Habits, old hats
Choices made now won't change the past
I miss you, come home
I won't leave you in the unknown
Life can't live on its own
[Pre-Chorus]
So sit with me, and tell me why you think you're sinking underneath
You think I don't know you're lying through your teeth
This isn't a game that we should repeat, repeat
[Chorus]
Looking in the mirror at a black eye
A composition with a white lie
It won't show you, it won't show you
It won't show you who's inside
