Mirror mirror on the wall...
I see a girl pretending to be like them all.
Though she fails at times,
It doesn't stop her from trying.
Mirror mirror on the wall...
I see a girl longing to be popular.
Though she hasn't yet succeeded,
And in her attempt she loses herself.
Mirror mirror on the wall...
I see a girl full of tournment.
Though she tries to hide the pain,
Soon it will all come out in shame.
Mirror mirror on the wall...
I see a girl wanting to be accepted.
Though tries as she may,
To her dismay she is but only an outcast.
Mirror mirror on the wall...
I see a girl trying to be like them all.
But alas she fails,
Her pain shows bleeding.
Mirror mirror on the wall...
I see that girl is me.
And I have taken the fall,
While lying here bleeding.
