Trace My Reflection
I begin to look, then away again.
I'm trying to meet your perception.
Why am I so different and blind, my friend?
Beauty and the confidence to win.
I fear to see this in my reflection.
I begin to look, then away again.
I want to be accepted, or is this a sin?
Because being myself is like an imperfection.
Why am I so different and blind, my friend?
It's a cold world, is my heart made from tin?
I am coming closer to my reflection.
I begin to look, then away again.
The mind isn't so bad within.
I see happiness in my characterization.
Why am I so different and blind, my friend?
Do you see what I see or is it my lens?
Or is it my 20/100 incorrect vision?
I begin to look, then away again.
Why am I so different and blind, my friend?
