What is it I see?
I see my own reflection,
Staring back at me.

But then I look deep within,
The mirror of my soul.
I see my present,and my past,
And what the future holds.

I see myself as what I am,
And what I could have been.
I see the shadow side of me,
That's hidden deep within.

As I stare at my reflection,
Staring back through my own eyes.
I see myself as others do,
But I also I see the lies.

Others cannot see,of course,
This person I conceal.
They know the person Ive become,
But my other side is real.

The mirror rids of my disquise,
Of hatred,truth,and tears,
And see my deepest fears.

Maybe I should end it all,
So many ways to die.
I lean up against the wall,
And suddenly begin to cry.

The tears stream down my face,
As I begin to say good-bye.
Good-bye,sunshine,good-bye,Mom,
Cant say I didnt try.

Then I look into the mirror,
And see the me standing there.
A troubled,lost,and lonely child,
With tear stained cheeks and matted hair.

The mirror has two faces,
One of truth,reality.
The other is what others see,
My made-up fantasy.

Well,mirror,thanks for being there,
But its time I step away.
Its time my mask came off for good,
The real mes here to stay.

When I stare into the mirror,
What is it I see?
I see my own reflection,
Staring back at me.

But then I look deep within,
The mirror of my soul.
I see my present,and my past,
And what the future holds.

I see myself as what I am,
And what I could have been.
I see the shadow side of me,
That's hidden deep within.

But I also I see the lies.
