Midnight, another vacant stare
And if by sunrise, you still think I was there
Then you're mistaken
I'd rather bring myself to tears
You're in the spotlight, you're masquerading well
Everything's alright, as far as you can tell
But come tomorrow, maybe delusions all to blame
A likely story once again

You remind me of a girl (remind me, remind me)
You remind me of a girl I used to know
So paint your face and hide behind
The image of what you have (tried to find)
You're singing of love and you sing of pain
But somehow all these words aren't the same

Scandal, another claim to fame
It's hard to handle, it's such a crying shame
Your eyes are blinded
You can't see the forest for the trees
It's time to get up off your knees

You remind me of a girl (remind me, remind me)
You remind me of a girl I used to know
So paint your face and hide behind
The image of what you have (tried to find)
You're singing of love and you sing of pain
But somehow all these words aren't the same
