Slipping Reality

What's happening to me? 
Am I slowly slipping away from reality? 
Have I really changed that much? 
Or is it supposed to be this way? 
Is my mom really right? 
Do you think I'll be okay? 
Am I really that bad? 
Should I put up a fight? 
Or is it all in my head? 
Take a look in the mirror 
What do you see? 
I see someone new... 
A different version of me... 
Tell me she's wrong 
Then sing me a song 
Say she's overreacting again 
And everything will be okay 
Am I slipping away?
