Mirror Coat

I taped a Band-Aid on the mirror crack

So I don't have to see who’s looking back

He wears my coat and sips my tea

Pretends he's just like me

And I feed the mailman decoy notes

Rolled into the arms of his overcoats

Turns out the bills don't need a key

They found a crack and came for free

Well I played it long, and I watched it go

Now somebody laughs at our favorite shows

And I say I’m fine, and he might agree

But he came in quiet and now he’s me

And I played it slow

I took the hit

Now he rewrites what I wouldn’t admit

And all my plan sank in paper boats

Somehere beneath the pouring notes

And the mirror says I’ve aged with grace

But it spells it wrong across my face[Chorus]

Well I played it long, and I watched it go

Now somebody laughs at our favorite shows

And I say I’m fine, and he might agree

But he came in quiet and now he’s me

And I played it slow

I took the hit

Now he’s rewritten everything

That I wouldn’t admit
