mirror mirror
  I search in the mirror I see the fear
  A reflection of a person I used to love so dear
  I shift my gaze not able to stand
  To look at the person who looks like me but is not who I am
  I see the dark circles underneath the eyes
  I see the longing to self satisfy
  Mirror mirror on the wall
  Who is this person whom I have become?
  Where has this anger and fear come from?
  I conceal the tiredness of my eyes
  My emotions hide behind a mask
  To where this dreadfulness can be disguised
  People ask for the truth
  But I say I am fine
  I need no one to stand beside
  Mirror mirror against the wall
  Mirror mirror what is my call?
  Why have I suffered so much pain and loss?
  Why did I walk down this path of darkness,
  When I knew it would be too much of a cost?
  Is it possible to keep this anger and fear away?
  Or will it alway linger at bay?
  Is it possible for me to dry these tears?
  Or will they always stay so close and near?
  Mirror mirror against the wall
  Tell me tell me tell me it all
