Mirror Mirror on the wall why do I trust you at all

Always displaying every flaw

Why can't you reflect who I am on the inside?

Don’t you know that I'm hurting because of what you show

Always putting me at a regular low


Mirror mirror on the wall what do you wish me to be

Blonde hair, blue eyes, Clear skin, Perfect Body

Longing for perfection but that's not something I can give

Making me question if I should still live

Am I not good enough for you?


Mirror mirror on the wall why do I hear your constant call?

I try to escape the tears you gave but you followed and there was no escape

Your glass cuts me with every glare but I can't help but stop and stare

The closer I came the imperfections began to grow

Why can't you just leave me alone?


Mirror mirror on the wall you think you’re so big and tall

Your prison of glass will no longer restrain me

Not everyone sees me the way you do

I am much more then what you see

Because I will always be me
