mirror mirror
every me from 10 to now has been a shell of me
i try to find my insides
but they fell out long ago
and only recently i’ve been trying oh so hard to find them once again
i've been looking at only other people
boys
since i was young
trying desperately
for people to like me
to want me
for people to care
how did i not realize that something was lacking
my insides fell out long ago
when i was only 10
since then im just a mirror
looking back now and then
but i gave up on my reflection
because still nobody cared
i cried so hard i broke the mirror
now i'm picking up the pieces
from my broken bloody tear-stained mirror
that i can turn into a window
