Girl In the Mirror

The girl in the mirror isn't me
She's not the girl i know
That's a girl crying desperately to be free
With only scars to show
The girl in the mirror is crying
Odd I am too
The girl in the mirror is debating dying
Getting weird now I am too
The girl in the mirror is bleeding
There's blood on my arms
The girl in the mirror is screaming
In my head goes off alarms
The girl in the mirror having a hard time breathing
My head doesn't feel right 
The girl in the mirrors chest is heaving
Hands around my neck holding me too tight
Then i realize that girl was me
It was my reflection
It was me crying to be free
This blood shows my dejection
The girl in the mirror is gone
I am leaving too
Screams of terror at dawn
Around a lifeless body a pool of blood grew
