Mirror Mirror
Because I love you, I won't let him touch you.
Because I love you, I won't let your eye be blue.
Because I love you, I will be strong to leave him behind.
Because I love you, I will open your eyes, you will no longer be blinded to his disguise.
Because I love you, I will tell you, you're beautiful, important, worthy, and special. Just so he doesn't have to.
Because I love you, I will stomp my foot and say we are through.
Because I love you, I won't let his harsh words or vile hands harm you anymore.
Because I love you, I will look in the mirror and tell you things everyone else ignored.
