Like a foggy mirror,

If I could be the man on your shoulder

A God as you grow older.

Close your eyes, they'll tell a story,

Of happy endings.

Close your eyes, re-write the story,

It's not what they said, and it's not what we read

Your defense,

you've done no wrong

And live life in innocence,

I'd sleep so much easier tonight.

And when the cards are down,

And when the cards are down,

Everything they told us
