Lyrics
0:42Staring in the mirror with two borrowed eyes
0:47Looking for the part of me that's still alive
0:52Waiting for my chest to fall and rise
1:02Standing in the corner With my shirt tucked in
1:06Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring
1:11And it all flies by like a speeding train
1:20Dead wishes on a broken chain
1:25White roses in a dead man's dream
1:30Down and out with nothing to lose
1:35If these long dead wishes
1:39Ever do come true
1:45Waiting for the night to come and chase away
1:50All the flies gathering around my head
1:54With my memory for a pillow
1:58And all my regrets for a bed
2:12Dead wishes on a burning lake
2:28White roses from my soul to keep
2:32Down and out with everything to win
2:57If my long since sunken
Staring in the mirror with two borrowed eyes Looking for the part of me that's still alive Waiting for my chest to fall and rise Standing in the corner With my shirt tucked in Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring And it all flies by like a speeding train Dead wishes on a broken chain White roses in a dead man's dream Down and out with nothing to lose If these long dead wishes Ever do come true Waiting for the night to come and chase away All the flies gathering around my head With my memory for a pillow And all my regrets for a bed Dead wishes on a burning lake White roses from my soul to keep Down and out with everything to win If my long since sunken
