Dm
I search high and low, but I can't find you

                           F        Bb C
Still your vexing laugh entices me

Dm
Close enough to touch but then you run away

                                F
I'm about to quit, and then you say...

 Bb       C           Dm     Bb
"Lose yourself in the vanity faire!"
[Pre-Chorus]
       C
Insanity...

     Dm     Bb     C   Bb  Dm
It's whispering to me, woah

     Bb     C
What I believe...

   Dm       Bb     C          Bb   C
Is just not making sense of   what I see
[Chorus]
Dm                  F
Show me your reflection...
(A sly disguise)
Bb                         Dm
Is it the girl you want to be?

   F         Bb
(A porcelain smile)
(You're a knockout, baby!)
 C
(Drape yourself in fragile fantasy!)

Dm             F
I see your reflection...
(A sly disguise)
Bb                                Dm
And it's not the girl you want to be

      F       Bb
(A fraudulent smile)

                             C
(What you see is what you've asked for!)

                         Dm    C  F
(But it's never what you are)
[Verse 2]
Bb        C       A         Dm
Lost in a maze of beautiful deception

    Bb          C
And just like before...

           A          Dm
I'm at the mercy of a phantom!

     Bb               C
When will it end? How will it end?

         A            Dm
And will you be in my arms?

             Bb      C
I just can't take anymore...

        A                    Dm
Of this pointless search for nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
       C
Insanity...

     Dm     Bb     C   Bb  Dm
It's whispering to me, woah

     Bb     C
What I believe...

   Dm       Bb     C          Bb   C
Is just not making sense of   what I see

Show me your reflection...

[Bridge]
F
Oh, cruel harlot! - (Silence!) Your filthy tongue will be stilled

Bb           C               Dm
Laughter Echoing, I'm unraveling tonight

Dm
(Silence!) I've had enough    (Silence!) No longer will you stop me!

     Bb                 C                 Bb
Your vanity, so patiently will steal your soul

            C
(You're hideous...)

                      Bb
Mirror, mirror on the wall...

             C                         Bb
A liar to us all, you'll be the one to fall

    C
The eye of the beholder knows the truth

Show me your reflection...

Dm       C              Bb
But it's never what you are

         C           Bb     C
What you see is what you've asked for

         Dm     C        Bb
What you see is what you get     A cold-hearted tale

One by one, reflections fall!    (Come on, come on, come on, come on!)

Em
Until I destroy them all!    (Come on, come on, come on, come on!)
