Staring at the reflection
But it doesn't represent me
Everything I am is nothing you can see
I just want to be confident when I look in the mirror
Instead, I just want to disappear
All I want is to escape free
Free from the pain and worry
Free from all my tears of fury
I want to decide for myself
I don't need any help
And I don't need my own public jury
They judge me by what I say and what I wear
Then act as if they actually care
They pretend to be a friend
Soon that act ends
Then they gossip when I'm not there
I stare at the reflection again and again wondering what went wrong
Feeling the emptiness of not being able to belong
Everyone has a struggle
Everyone can crumble
But we have to stay strong
