Mirrored Shades

Shit, the alarm - now don't be afraid
New worlds to conquer, beds to be made
Promises broken, heroes are slain
Forgive and forget, forgotten, forgave

Drinks are raised
Toasts are made
I watch it all through my mirrored shades

You are but a ticket, me I am a face
You're wishing so, so hard
That you could take my place
`We can work together'
Don't invade my space
Cross the finish line, winning the rat race

I can't begin to count
The smoke filled rooms I've played
Surveyor of the scene, in my mirrored shades

(Lead Break)

See yourself in my shades
You'll never know
If I'm looking the other way
See yourself in my shades
You'll never know
If I'm looking the other way
Looking the other way
Looking the other way
In my mirrored shades
