Broken Reflection
When I look in the mirror what do I see
A broken reflection staring back at me
When I look in the mirror
I see a different side of me
I see the pain and the tears
the lies and the fears
all the abuse from over these years
When I look in the mirror
I see the scars that you caused
When I look in the mirror
I wish I could see what you see
I wish I could see beauty
But I don't
I look in the mirror and what do I see
Nothing but a broken reflection staring back at me...
