Mirror , Mirror

Hiding behind all the makeup ,lipstick , gloss and heels , Simple prayer and a smile , Trying to keep it positive always was told only the weak cry , never shed a tear or frown. Holding my head high as i look in the mirror. Inside behind the cover-girl makeup, i feel so down , Years of being put down ,treated so low, The cover-girl behind the mirror is so happy and free. Mirror - Mirror that cover-girl just isnt me.
