Mirror Mirror On the Wall

Mirror mirror on the wall,
Who is this i see?
A woman who once was full of life
Now lives in mysery.
She stares into the tall  glass
Hating what appears.
A stranger looking back at her
With feelings now too familiar.
She thinks shes  just stringing along
Being controlled like a fool. Starring herself the puppet doll.
Selling tickets to her own show.

Mirror mirror on the wall
I fear whats next to come.
An emotional wreck with strangers shes met
Killing her self worth.

Mirror mirror on the wall 
Thats now destroyed completely.
Pieces of glass on the floor
Where she lies with her demons.
