In the mirror you see a porcelin doll
one that has taken such a long fall
Her white skin cracked and battered
her frail glass heart shattered
The look in her green eyes
belong to someone that slowly dies
Her life torn apart by one single lie
ridding her of something you can't buy
Her hope and strength have been torn away
someone has the fatal price to pay
With that one final push off the edge
she becomes filled with an eternal plegde
This doll will always belong to you
no matter what she must go through
She gave you her mind, body and soul
and you gave her this throbbing hole
But she welcomes the choking pain
because its the one thing keeping her sane
