Mirror Mirror On The Wall
Who Wears A Mask? ... Oh ...But You All!

I look into the mirror
Though I don't look back

It's just an empty vessel
Staring through the crack

I put on my mask
To hide from the world and shield my fears

And I break a bit more
It Brings to tears

It's like every kids watching
Every move that I make

Every breath I breathe,
And every step that I take

Waiting for me to falter
Just to make a mistake

So their jokes can persecute me
Burning me at the stake

They don't say a word at least to my face
For from within the shadows their words and stares can be traced

My friends have all became
A thing of the past
Why ever spend the time to make them

When I know that they won't last

And as if that all just ain't enough
My parents are stern and they don't ever slough

I know that they Love me
Their just trying to be caring

But the methods they use
Are a bit Rough and Overbearing

So why do I still try?
Tell me why do I care?
Because when I look in the mirror

I'm not even there


I have none of me to give
I have nothing to share

It's A Sad, Lonely Life
That's I've Come to Bear

So I ask God why?
What Makes Any of This fair?
Why must I be the one

Always caught in the snare

Emotionally capsized
I've been sunken to the abyss
Thats when I picked up a razor

And I cut my wrist

Into my flesh
It began to bore

Until my parents came
And They burst through the door

On their knees crying
They both fall to the floor

They want A reason,
They ask why, and what for?

I was appalled that they
Would Ask Why Unto Me

Because you'd have to blind
Just not to see

That Everyone's target
Has always been me
