Monster In the Mirror

Mirror oh mirror how can this be
Looking into you I don't see me
I see a monster that hides 
And a soul that just dies 

Mirror oh mirror how can this be
Somehow I want to break free 
Nothing I can do but to wait
I guess seeing this monster is just fate

Mirror oh mirror what do you see
Do you see that this is not me
Finding me crying is all I do 
Me accepting this monster is all true

Mirror oh mirror you look at me now 
Scales and scars looking so down 
Find my inner-core 
So I don't look like this anymore
