Lyrics:

There's a girl stuck in the mirror
And she stares into my eyes
She says she kiss me tender
I say I don't love her but I know it's a lie

And lately she's been lonely
I couldn't tell you why
She lives without emotion
She makes me better
Only for the night

Ohh, last night I dreamt about her
And our bodies mocked our minds
Her taste was so familiar
I say I don't need her but I know it's a lie

I swear that it's the last time
that I lay down with her
Ohh, she holds me when I'm shaking
And it makes me better
Only for the night

I swear, I swear, it's the last time I tie it
I swear, I swear, it's the last time I tie it

She used to dream of moving pictures
Now she slips into the sky

Lately I've been lonely
I couldn't tell you why
She lives without emotion
It makes me better
Only for the night

holy crap im speechless...this is the freakin best cover ever. i don't want to say i have a fav RXB song cuz thats kinda hard to do for me but this is up there and ive listened to this song countless number of times. ive always wanted to do an acoustic cover for this song and man u bloody nailed it. i kinda don't even want to try anymore because it won't be as good as this hahaha

[scarymusic78]

haha I'm glad you liked it! every time I played the song it transformed itself towards that reggae style. although I love that rhythm in the original song, but without drums it sounds very strange *g* and you should make your own cover dude! even if its the same song, everyone brings their own style in, which is always funny to listen =)

[Incuduck]

wow, bro...seriously, you got some mean talent. Do you have any original material I'd be very interested in listening to your music

[scarymusic78]

some chords for this song:
