I’m in the house of mirrors
Where the automatics seem to sing lullabys
at night
When the moon is full
You can see them reaching out for it
Like they know it well
Don’t shut me in
I don’t think I want to stay in here
I think I want to stay

This is where they live their lives
Like an old movie
They see you in black and white
and add the colour in
This is where they live their lives
Like an old movie
They see you in black and white
and add the colour in by computer

The house of mirrors

They say I should call this home
I can call my friends on television
Hear their words on tape
Don’t shut me in
I don’t think I want to stay in here
I think I want to stay

This is where they live their lives
Like an old movie
They see you in black and white
and add the colour in
This is where they live their lives
Like an old movie
They see you in black and white
and add the colour in by computer

The house of mirrors
