Who is she?
The one who stares at me
Looking into my eyes
Looking into her eyes
No soul i see

Who is she?
Unfaithful depiction or reflection
Trying to reach perfection
She only sees defections

Who is she?
Lying to herself
Lying to myself

Who is she?
With a broken smile
Pretends for a while
Her pain can hide

Who is she?
Is she me?
That reflection i cannot recognize

Am i she?
Never good enough

I am
So i pretend
I pretend to be her

No one sees me
Everyone sees her
I see her on the mirror
When i try to see myself
Under a mask of pretendings
