Mirror

You lay there in bed

Wishin you were dead

Mother and Father

Theyre fighting again

Pulling your hair

Being misled

Hopin, that things will get better again.



Daddy is angry

Hes starting to hit

Mommy is hurt

And shes crying so loud..

(Crying so loud)



Here comes the cops

Dad got caught.

Didn't give in,

What happens now?

Took him to jail,

With no bail.

Gave him life,

And he broke down and cried.



Daddy is angry

Hes starting to hit

Mommy is hurt

And shes crying so loud..

(So loud)



The doctor says

She doesnt have much time

Im sorry, but your mom,

Shes gonna die.

My heart stops,

Im terrified.

Now my mom, shes gonna die.



Daddy is angry

Hes starting to hit

Mommy is hurt

And shes, cryin..

Cryin so loud.



Is it my fault?

Am I to blame?

My mom is dead,

And my dad is in jail.

Im all alone,

All by myself.

I hate my life, and i

Wish I was dead.



Daddy is angry

And hes starting to hit

Mommy is hurt

Crying so loud..

Cryin so loud..



(Am I to blame?)

(Am I to blame?)

(Am I to blame?)

My brother and I wrote this song together, partly about our past.
