"Goodnight" lyrics - THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE

THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE
"Goodnight"

First place on a classroom wall
Every turn of the face can help to break
The fall from a domestic disgrace
Every rumour displaced, is lost and found

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
A lack of discipline, one hand to cut the other
So unprofessional, you're not a friend, you're just a lover
Nothing exceptional, this is correctional

[Chorus:]
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight

First day in a victim's chair
Every surface replaced can help to keep you
Fair for a corrected gaze
Every feature displayed will match your crowd

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
A loss of innocence, one hand to wash the other
Be a perfectionist, you're nothing if you're just another
Something material, this isn't personal

[Chorus:]
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss to wish us all goodnight

[Bridge:]
We're all dancing to the same sad song
And we're not sleeping, but it won't take long
Illicit conviction, confessions incomplete
Correction, submissive restriction
Instructions will repeat, direction

[Outro:]
Mirror on the wall, frame the picture
Reflect this kiss, to wish us all goodnight
