I look in the mirror
I see the girl staring back at me
But I don't recognize her
Shes not me
Then who is she?
I see a normal girl
Staring back at me
I don't see a scared girl
Or someone crying
I see a normal girl
Staring back at me
She's a stranger
To me
Who is this girl
Staring back at me
She crumples to the ground
Crying
Suddenly there I am
Staring back at myself
