If you turn around, we go back 
Like a [bad word] on a track 
We used to put that record on 
Long ago but not that long... 

And now your singin' a song 
That I knew when I was young 
We can only see ourselves 
In the people we love 
And its a strange kind of mirror 
Yeah its a strange kind of mirror 

Well I live through you 
And you live through me 
I wouldn't know me 
If I didn't know you 
And we live what we see 
We live vicariously 
We can only see ourselves 
We can only see ourselves 
And it's a strange kind of mirror 

Well we pull as we connect 
We absorb as we reflect 
And there is another side 
And its not that hard to find... 

But the more that I hate 
The more I can't relate 
There must be something in me 
That I don't wanna see 
And you remind me 
You remind me 
Of how bad I can be 
And it's a strange kind of mirror 

And to the people we discard 
I know your workin' hard 
But you don't talk like me 
We sure as [bad word] don't agree 
And I can tell 
That your angry 
But that just makes me angry 

But the more that I love 
The more I'll rise above 
There must be something in me 
That I'm trying to see 
And you remind me 
You remind me 
Of how good I could be 
And it's a strange kind of mirror
