A Version Of Myself

It's there as a warning without a red light
It's a please in the morning and thank you at night

It's a version of myself, I show it to nobody else
The Me only mirrors know is coming out to say hello

I could always hide and let it go
If I never tried, I'd never know

That somewhere is here, that sometime is now
That no disappeared and became a somehow

It's a version of myself, I show it to nobody else
The Me only mirrors know is coming out to say hello

I won't pick you up and let you down
I won't throw you in and let you drown

Open the door, I want you to see
Open the door, I'm giving the key

We could talk from now to Halloween
Disappear and throw sticks in the stream

Open the door
Now we don't need words
Open the door
But not to the world

Only to myself, I show it to nobody else
The girl hanging on the wall, I couldn't recognise myself
The Me only mirrors know is coming out to say hello
Cos I wanna let you through, I'll keep the real me for you
