Girl before the mirror
Appraises her disguise
Child become a mother
Tries to fix her eyes.
No more of his excuses
It has to be today
She can keep her fantasy
If she can get away
Paint her name on a one-way street
Painted cheeks with angry heat
Wounded pride on painted eyes
Paint the night with battlecries.
All puffed up with vanity
We see what we want to see
To the beautiful and the wise
The mirror always lies.
Boy before the mirror
Checks his camouflage
Polishes his armor
And the charger in the garage.
No more lame excuses
It has to be tonight
He can take the princess
If he can take the fight.
Pound the drums with martial beat
Pound the streets with marching feet
Wounded pride, distorted eyes
Paint the night with battlecries.
All puffed up with vanity
We see what we want to see
To the powerful and the wise
The mirror always lies.
Boys and girls together
Mistake conceit for pride
Ambition for illusion
Dreams for self delusion.
Girls and boys together
See what it is we lack
Boys and girls together
Let's paint the mirror black
Paint it black.
All puffed up with vanity
We see what we want to see
To the beautiful and the wise
The mirror always lies.
Boy's and girls together
Paint the mirror black
The mirror always lies.
Girls and boy's together
Paint the mirror black
The mirror always lies.

I have this record and all of RUSH's old work on LP albums, but unfortunately they are somewhat scratchy sounding and don't come over anywhere near as good as this does.

It`s 6/8 and 7/8, not 7/4.

Vinyl sounds amazing compared to CD's! It's louder, you can hear everything and it's sort of alien to many of my peers. I did a Rush presentation for my English class in College and I brought 2112, PW, and MP with me and everyone was asking, "Is that what an album looks like?" and all those questions and told them that these sound BETTER than the CD's. Thanks for putting this up. RUSH RULES!!!

this copy is a new pressing from the original master tapes. My original copy of PW has been well played, still sounds geat but has those extra sounds that make each and every vinyl LP unique and yours. My Led Zep IV on the Battle of Evermore has a pop in the middle that I have come to expect. LOL
