When I look into the mirror, a girl I do not see

I see a pain writhed loser staring straight back at me

I feel the earth begin to crumble and the ground begin to sink

Sadly, I can't stop this because this is what I think

I see a girl with a tiny figure, too thin to stay alive

Yet I starve myself in this captivity, this thing that we call life

I don't see the girl I knew three months ago, the one where I could smile

I haven't seen her in a long time, gosh, it's been awhile

I see a body full of anger, pain and regret

I see hundreds of scars on her body, some I haven't met

I see a figure quietly crying in late hours of the night

I see a soul longing for comfort, wondering when will it be alright

Although I have this pain, this torture deep inside

Some people never notice it because it's become too easy to hide

So I wash away the tears and the blood down the sink

Put down the razor because I was too late to think

When it's early in the morning, not a star left in the sky

I wake up furiously wondering what is what like to be alright

I can't remember happiness, I can only remember pain

And when I try too hard to get better, I just relapse all over again

When people try and give me comfort, I just push them away

I cannot stop myself from hurting them, because I know they'll hurt me the same

So I sit alone and deal with this, I'll deal with it for now

Until that razor starts whispering again and then I'll take a bow
