A beautiful new song John sang in Milwaukee. He wrote it in a hotel bathroom.

Beautiful, I watch you try
To see yourself through another's eyes
The mirrors are a losing game
They only show you backwards anyway
The magic and the misery come and go so easily
But everything you'll ever be, you already are to me

When you were only five years old
Playing princess in your mother's clothes
Could you feel me standing next to you
With my plastic sword and playground shoes
Saying if my dear I'm wrong somewhere, may dragons come and fail me now

Because everything you'll ever be, you already are to me

Why, I don't know why, I don't know why you think you need to do it 
How, I don't know how, I don't know how, but I just sit back and I see my way right through it



When the memories are ten feet tall
Throwing shadows on your bedroom wall
When you pull the shades and kill the lights
Will you hear me singing out tonight?
Will you hear me singing out tonight?
Days are long and words are cruel
But they won't get the best of you
Because everything you'll ever be, you have always been to me

  • Mirrors- the need to analize herself. sounds like she's really self-critical. In her unreachable expectations of herself, her perspective is still skewed just as a mirror isn't a true reflection of what's there bc it's reversed.

  • The mirrors are a losing game

    They only show you backwards anyway
