When I look into the mirror I see
                              A patchwork of everything I didn't think I'd be
                              I was a bright and burning star back then
                              But now I'm just a throbbing red giant
                              
                              Rabid hair like a lion's mane dying
                              My head under running tap water, I'm crying
                              If now I'm nothing but a stitched up doll
                              Maybe two ponies were cooler than one after all
                              
                              I know that I was pretty amazing before
                              But I was so ready to not be that anymore
                              Who knew it'd only take me downhill
                              Where I'll be contemplating shoving a hundred pills
                              
                              However, what's done is done already
                              I'm done with keeping myself unsteady
                              This patchy girl is still quite lovely
                              'Cause there are some who see me differently
                              
                              Handmade dolls are vintage but beautiful
                              So I'll feed myself with encouragements spoonful
                              Even if I'm not going be the one I admired yesterday
                              I'm going to strive to be admirable anyway.
