Jessica Law - Narcissus Under the Knife lyrics

Artist: Jessica Law

album: Languid Little Lies


My mind was ringing with echoes
When I told you to let go
When I sent you from me
Now sitting here at my mirror, with the lights getting dimmer
I can see myself clearly
And I'll never reconcile
Those bright eyes and flashing smile
With the mind that whirs and winds and finds fault in all I see
But I think I'll stay awhile
Sit and stare and sulk in style
And I never said that everything would be the same
And I never promised I would be okay with change
And I never meant to hurt you
But if you feel no pain
Then that's enough for me
Oh, that's enough for me
Looking is all I am doing
I would face my own ruin
If these looks didn't stay
I can't decide if I miss you
There are more pressing issues
Like remaining this way
And I'll never sympathise
With that place behind my eyes
Cells that order me to lie
And buy time with money
But I'm kind of mesmerised
By the face they hide behind
And I know I need someone who feels and thinks the same
And I know that person isn't real and can't be named
And I never meant to spurn you
But if you feel no blame
Then that's enough for me
Oh, that's enough for me
I know they'll soon come and get me
You would never have let me reach the state I'm in now
Counting the cracks on the pavement
One more day of enslavement to the lines on my brow
Just another little tweak
Rolls the clock back one more week
If I could, I would rewind the time I was with you
All those years I can't reclaim
But my youth I shall retain
And I'll never have that natural glow or natural grace
And I'll always have to cast my spell in other ways
And these dotted lines are painful
But that's the price I pay
And that's enough for me
Oh, that's enough for me
Oh, that's enough for me
