The Girl in the Mirror


Maybe the girl in the mirror

Deserves everyting she has

I don't know whether to care or

To destroy the looking glass

It's painful to look at something I don't want to see

The image she took isn't who I want to be

I will walk through broken glass

To find the answers to the questions that I ask

I will crawl through broken glass

To find out where i'm going, where am I going?

Maybe the girl in the mirror

Is on the road she's supposed to take

It's hard to learn from the journey

When all you're worried about is

Finding love for yourself in the mistakes

I have walked through broken glass

To find the answers to the questions that i've asked

I've learned to dust off from the fall

To keep my chin up, stand up tall

I live my life and just for me

And I can do so happily

I found out where i'm going

And i'm still going
