MIRROR, MIRROR
The mirror tells you something that you
don't want to see
Each set shows a different view you don't know where to agree
Your shattered perception of yourself paved a way
to disturbed self-revere
You have tea for the night
And a coffee for the day
Just to weigh you down
So you have to burn it away
When you thought its gonna work out
But it keeps bugging you every single day
The way you look at your self
Makes you the victim of self enmity
Wasting coins
on what you think
Could ease your physicality
But you know its not right
Its not the way
You keep on doing it anyway
Its not the best thing
Its never the way
It still not gonna make you feel okay
Those intimidating beauties
The looks of a beauty queen
Your sources for self critique
You 'd planned to cut ties
from the world you are in
You tried to despise
the portions that you need to live
You don't want to hate
And you don't hate anybody
All you hated was yourself
Your deathly sin of insecurity
You don't have to squeeze your face with hate in your veins
Scratch your skin with your nails until blood reigns
Hit your head against the wall
And scream until you bleed
You drink, and drink until you lie down sleeping with the chemicals inside
And in the morning you curled up feeling with your pain
Can you feel
your bones now?
The way you look at the mirror
Try to think that you're beautiful
You deserve someone
if not better
But the best, just for you
When they say that you're beautiful
You believe
You deserve something if not better
But the best just for you...
