Eyes Like Glass Mistakes

You talked me to sleep last night
I hadn't felt that sad in years
Your eyes like glass mistakes
They moved me close to tears
You speak those favourite fables
Which I am yet to live
And casually confirm my fears
That I've got nothing to give

I take it back, all of it
Those names I called myself
The heros of my childhood
Like hardbacks on the shelf
I take it back, those promises

I wish I could say I've clung to time like gold
But as you said goodbye, I almost died

- from Nothing To Give by White Lies

Listening to White Lies and shooting self-portraits. Pretentious? Moi?

Solid portrait, I like the closeness of it. You've gone way too far with the skin softening though, venturing into soap-opera-soft-focus territory here.
