Underneath this hollow skin I hide
My true beauty within
Afraid to show the world who I really am
I let the shadows block my surrounding
Leaving me in utter darkness
I look around in fear
Hoping to find a way to
Break away from this
Endless pain
I hate this hollow body
Whenever I look at myself in the mirror
I see a side of me I never seen before
A side of a demon...
I struggle to break free
Because I know with apart of me
Set free I can try to stretch my wings and
Fly away to where my heart belongs
Now I smile weakly when
I look down in the mirror and
See a little glimpsing light of hope within my eyes
My true beauty within
Afraid to show the world who I really am
I let the shadows block my surrounding
Leaving me in utter darkness
I look around in fear
Hoping to find a way to
Break away from this
Endless pain
I hate this hollow body
Whenever I look at myself in the mirror
I see a side of me I never seen before
A side of a demon...
I struggle to break free
Because I know with apart of me
Set free I can try to stretch my wings and
Fly away to where my heart belongs
Now I smile weakly when
I look down in the mirror and
See a little glimpsing light of hope within my eyes

"I look down in the mirror and
See a little glimping light of hope within my eyes" I am glad to hear it. Although shouldn't "glimping" be "glimpsing"? Anyway, great job on this and best of luck to you in the contest
