mirror mirror on the wall

I didn't recognize myself today

Mirror mirror on the wall

You don’t flinch you see it all

Lines and cracks that I can’t hide

A stranger’s face where I reside

Every glance a quiet fight (ha ha ha ha aha!)

The truth’s too loud under this light

Am I human or a ghost

A reflection I fear the most

Mirror mirror tell me true

Am I alien to me or you

I stand here daily lost in thought

A thousand battles that I’ve fought

The mirror whispers what I dread

You can’t escape what’s in your head

Silver surface cold and thin (ha ha ha ha aha!)

It pulls me out it pulls me in

Am I human or a ghost

A reflection I fear the most

Mirror mirror tell me true

Am I alien to me or you

I stand here every day the same

The shadows flicker call my name

A stranger's eyes my reflection speaks

My knees grow weak my heart it leaks

The glass won’t lie it bends but holds

A story told in silver folds

I want to smash it but then what’s left

A broken self a theft of breath

Silver surface cold and thin (ha ha ha ha aha!)

It pulls me out it pulls me in

The mirror is the truth can I bear it

Or does it hit me in the stomach too

An alien staring back uninvited

Who am I what do I do

Mirror mirror tell me true

Am I alien to me or you
