Snow White

Snow White Laci Nelson Mirror, Mirror, on the wall Do I even know myself at all Who is this person in the glass Is that my face, or just a mask... Reflections are so easy on the eyes when eyes are blind and so are lies I'm scared of what I cannot see I'm scared of what I might not be... I stare into the deep brown holes And try to look into my soul Behind a wall I've built up strong Are my intentions good or maybe wrong... I grasp these thoughts this strange unknown of who I am and what i dont yet know Im only me, a hopeless girl living in an even more hopeless world... I know I dont know who we are I know i dont know where to fall when living gets old and old gets older to feel what its like when life is over... Mirror, Mirror, on the wall So whose the fairest of them all? It's not the beauty for which i search but things of intangibilty that just might lurk... Behind our skin that hides our souls Behind those thoughts we do not know They say that Beauty is only skin deep Which leaves a decision of which to keep Your body or your soul...

Now I know why I remembered this when you started reciting it. I have read this on here before and it stuck with me. This is awesome. It flows smooth, it rhymes well, and it's just so true. (I left the two that I left on Myspace here too.)
