inside you ------------ changing, transforming, into something, you're not. smile wide. bite it hard. the needles tear, right through you. when i die, i'll ask you why, i died inside you, years ago. [chorus] but i guess all things must change. if we try, we can never succeed, to leave things this way. a true show of colours and they turn on you. look yourself in the mirror, ask me what you're supposed to do! when life is hard you'll understand. for now be happy while you can, and live with it. but when the tides are turning, and all things are changing, just remember who you are, and maybe you wont need protection. [bridge] angels cry, the news was, too grim, to bear. sorry i, did not try, to clarify, the answers. the mirror's calling, out to you. your opinion, is all that matters now. [bridge] [chorus] but i guess all things must change. if we try, we can never succeed, to leave things this way. a true show of colours and they turn on you. look yourself in the mirror, ask me what you're supposed to do! when life is hard you'll understand. for now be happy while you can, and live with it. but when the tides are turning, and all things are changing, just remember who you are, and maybe you wont need protection. [solo] and when the goin' gets tough, and you feel like you have had enough, earthly days. remember who you are. dont worry about who they think you are, anyway. life iss hard, i know you understand. but take it from me, better hard than bland. write your curses in the sand. and write you kindess in stone! a clever hand, and kind heart, will make it far in this world, as i planned. look in the mirror and see the truth. on the inside there is only me, and you. so when you as me what to do, i say go all in. there is nothing you can loose. [chorus] but i guess all things must change. if we try, we can never succeed, to leave things this way. a true show of colours and they turn on you. look yourself in the mirror, ask me what you're supposed to do! when life is hard you'll understand. for now be happy while you can, and live with it. but when the tides are turning, and all things are changing, just remember who you are, and maybe you wont need protection. [breakdown] protection, from me, in me, using me. judgement, through me. use me, to a disadvantage. smile hard, like a good child. call upon, your inner conscience. live happily, through me. i died in you, to save you from me. smile wide, from the inside. like when i, show my teeth. laugh aloud, and never know why. that is how, i am alive! [chorus] but i guess all things must change. if we try, we can never succeed, to leave things this way. a true show of colours and they turn on you. look yourself in the mirror, ask me what you're supposed to do! when life is hard you'll understand. for now be happy while you can, and live with it. but when the tides are turning, and all things are changing, just remember who you are, and maybe you wont need protection.
