the girl in the mirror has seen what i've seen
she says that life is oh so mean.
this girl lets me know that i can stop this pain
she tells me that happiness is what i'll gain.
the girl in the mirror says i'm trying too hard
she wants me to slow down.
she tells me that i'm dying inside
and lets me know that i can no longer hide.
the girl in the mirror says i can leave tomorrow
stop the pain and wash away my sorrow.
but only if i behave, will i go away
otherwise i'm here to stay.
the girl in the mirror says my heart is broken
she doesn't want it to heal.
she tells me that i'm living in the past
and lets me know that these memories do last.
the girl in the mirror stares with coldhearted eyes
her reflection filled with hand-me-down lies.
but this girl looks familiar, i wonder who she could be
could this girl in the mirror... be me?
