Mirror, Mirror

Looking back at me

Is a curious, scared girl

A gap between her teeth

Red faced

Lean and mean


Mirror, Mirror

Showing me everything

But nothing at all

Reflecting back

A girl scared of everything

Even of herself

She may not know what to do tomorrow

But she knows what to do in the moment


Mirror, Mirror

I see people in me

That have made me into the monster that I am

Looking back at her

Is a big bad world


Mirror, Mirror

Show this girl what it really truly means

To do right in the world

Show her how extraordinary it is to be her

And only her

Because she can't be anyone else

Mirror, Mirror

please
