Dm A Dm A
If I'm the mirror and you're the image
Dm G Dm A
then what's the secret between the two,
Dm A Dm G
these 'me's and 'you's, how many can there be?
C G
Oh, I don't mind all that around the place,
C F Esus4 E
as long as you keep it well away from me.
[progression 1]
Dm A Dm A
I've begun to regret that we ever met
Dm G Dm A
between the dimensions.
Dm A Dm G
It gets such a strain to pretend that the change
C G
is anything but cheap...
C G C F
with your infant pique and your angst pretensions
Esus4
sometimes you act like a creep.
[CHORUS]

Am G
And now I'm standing in the corner, looking at the room and the furniture
Dm F Esus4
in cheap imitation of alienation and grief.
Am G
And now we're going to the kitchen, fix ourselves a drink and a cigarette,
Dm F Esus4 E
getting no closer to being the joker or thief.
[progression 1]
Dm A Dm A
Still, I reflect, this nervous wreck
Dm G Dm A
who stands before me can see as well,
Dm A Dm G
can surely tell that he's not yet free;
C G C F
he can turn aside, but can no more ignore me
F E
than know which one of us is he,
F E
than tell what we are going to be,
F E
than know which one of us is me.
[CHORUS]

Am G
And now we're going to the kitchen, fix ourselves a drink and a cigarette,
Dm F Esus4 E
getting no closer to being the joker or thief.

These mirror images,
Esus4 E
these mirror images
Dsus4
won't stay, these mirror images
Csus4
go away, these mirror images
Bsus4 A
are no help. In these mirror images of myself
Dm A Dm G
there are no secrets.
