The mirror


I look fine, bad, pretty.. ugly. To me I am exceptional. To me I am a disgrace. I am the winner of the race. I cannot keep the pace. Call me a hero. Call me a zero. Don't call my name at all, but watch me dance So beautifully all the way down the hall. Where I will crawl, Into a ball, and maybe die in there. If it weren't for this mess of my tresses, That confuse my eyes with lies.
