Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
[Click] the camera snaps
Another disappointed frame
No face, appears on the mirror
No face to tell me that I’m the fairest
Only the rib’s guarding my heart
Visible to me, and the mirror
I want a snow-white picture
I want her radiant glace
Ugly is all I see as the click sounds again
Its Ringing in my head
Compulsiveness to smash the button
Down hard, my finger crushes it desperately
Again and Again I can’t stop it
Click, Click, Click
Disappointment after disappointment
The camera rolls, and it beeps as I look at it
~Memory Card Full~
Disgusting film, before my eyes
I delete them all
Not good enough, not snow whites pictures
How come I can’t be that little princess?
How come she, gets her fairy tale come true?
I delete them all, picture by picture
Tears roll down my cheeks, desperate for them to leave
Another disappointment as I look at the mirror
A scream fills the room and I throw the camera at it
As the mirror smashes my image into pieces
I fall onto the broken glass
Bare skin, delicate bones, weak tears
Ugly girl
