The looking glass, so shiny and new How quickly the glamor fades I start spinning slipping out of time Was that the wrong pill to take (Raise it up) You made a deal, and now it seems you have to offer up But will it ever be enough (Raise it up, raise it up) It's not enough (Raise it up, raise it up) Here I am, a rabbit hearted girl Frozen in the headlights It seems I've made the final sacrifice We raise it up, this offering} We raise it up This is a gift, it comes with a price Who is the lamb and who is the knife Midas is king and he holds me so tight And turns me to gold in the sunlight I look around, but I can't find you (raise it up) If only I could see your face (raise it up) Instead of rushing towards the skyline (raise it up) I wish that I could just be brave I must become a lion hearted girl Ready for a fight Before I make the final sacrifice We raise it up, this offering We raise it up Raise it up, raise it up (repeat) Bridge And in the spring I shed my skin And it blows away with the changing wind The waters turn from blue to red As towards the sky I offer it Chorus x2 This is a gift
