Lying to the Mirror

Can we believe all that we read, all that we tell you?
What you perceive to be the truth and what is real
Leavin' you scrapin' at the bottom of the barrel
Nothin' is broken or forgotten, that's the deal

And all your monsters in the night, they come to life
So you embrace 'em in the hope that you'll survive
Intoxicated by the fear and the flame
There's paranoia in your veins

We're all lyin' to the mirror
Lyin' to ourselves
Hidin' in the glitter
Lyin' to the mirror

It is the beauty of our flaws that will define us
So don't hold on to all the things you never had
Just remember, we're the good, the bad, the lovely
It is the sanity of life that makes us mad

So when the pain of your mistakes keeps you awake
And all your skeletons rattle in their chains
Intoxicated by the fear and the flame
There's paranoia in your veins

We're all lyin' to the mirror
Lyin' to ourselves
Hidin' in the glitter
Lyin' to the mirror, oh

Who you are is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
Who you are is what you are
And what you are is beautiful

We're all lyin' to the mirror
Lyin' to ourselves
Hidin' in the glitter
Lyin' to

We're all lyin' to the mirror
Lyin' to ourselves
Hidin' in the glitter
Lyin' to the mirror
