Mirrors
Mirror ,Mirror on the wall
I know you can’t hear me when I call
Maybe you can, none can tell
Because you tell me the truth ever so well
As you show me my ugly face
I am reminded once more why life is an unfair race
Why I might never ever get the girl
Honestly, I’m not sure I even care
Too bad you won’t let me see my soul
Which I’m sure is far uglier than the face you show
Most times I just sit and stare
Somehow hoping that I’ll manage to fare
In this world that’s ruled by deception
Selfish Competition and constant manipulation
Mirror ,mirror help me to learn
That the truth is true no matter how stern.
