Missing

It’s as if I’m living in a nightmare
I look at myself in this cracked mirror
I see a face unfamiliar to me and I’m missing something inside of me
I’m reaching out for help to set me free from captivity…

Something’s missing 
Once upon a time, we were kissing
Something’s missing
Everybody’s asking me what’s wrong with me…they think I’m being an irrational being

It’s as if I’m living in a dream
You ruined my self-esteem 
But, I forgive you now for all you’ve done
The battles are won and life has just begun
But, something’s missing…
