Artist/Band: Idlewild
Lyrics for Song: Let Me Sleep (Next to the Mirror)
Lyrics for Album: Scottish Fiction: Best of Idlewild 1997-2007 [2007]



I woke up first this morning

I've never seen the dawn

But I know what the world looked like before

How would I know what you said?

You're always first to go to bed

You're intent on sleeping it off



Let me sleep, next to the mirror

I know you don't like mirrors

When they reflect on you



For every word that you write

They won't mean much as barricades

They hold me down



I'm sure that you'll be fine

Ten more years of this

It will nearly be time

I'm sure that you'll be fine

It can't take ten more years



You woke up first this morning

You told me that you had a bad dream

Like one never before

What was in it?

My reflection showed that I'm far too critical



Let me sleep next to the mirror

Don't tell me that you don't like mirrors

Don't tell me that you don't like

Looking right through your own reflection



For every word that I write

They won't mean much as barricades

They hold me down



I'm sure that you'll be fine

Ten more years of this

It will nearly be time

I'm sure that you'll be fine

But it can't take ten more years
