What others see


What others see

Is a girl who can't dress,

A girl who studies 24/7,

who doesn't put make-up on,

who keeps to herself becuase she is afraid.

 

Out in the world I'm a girl

Who doesn't put a mask on,

Who tries to be someone she's not,

A mirror of other girls,

But is all that true?

 

What I see

Is a girl who has her own style,

A girl who does what she wants when she wants,

Who has natural beauty,

Who is herself becasue she is unique all on her own.

 

In the mirror I'm a girl

Who is you own person,

Who does her own thing just beacuse,

A mirror of no one but herself

And that's the truth.
