Mirror, Why?

Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Why try so hard to make me fall?
I look in you and I see my face.
A waste of time and a waste of space.
My eyes, my hair... it's all so wrong.
Kind of like a sad Bluejay song.
You can't show me the inside,
but I'm not safe from you there.
I guess I'm not really safe anywhere.
My hands, they shake. My head, it spins.
No one's aware of the shape I'm in.
Then you show me what everyone sees...
The person I really don"t want to be.

Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Now I see why you try so hard to make me fall.

This is my life everyday when I look in the mirror. I guess I just finally figured how to put words to it.
